Hearing Beethoven 5 yesterday I was reminded of the classic bit by Peter Schickele, “New Horizons in Music Appreciation.” It presents the first movement of Beethoven 5 as though it were a sporting event with play-by-play commentary, and hornist Bobby Corno fits in prominently.
It did not take long to find a version of this bit on YouTube, which is embedded below. You can hear the great Bobby Corno in action about 2:20 in! Conductors don’t like clams, which this clip illustrates well.
