Just throwing in a little jazz fusion.

Thar she blows!!

These modern composers will try anything to shake up the audience. Dude was just playing what was in front of him.

"Never look at the trombones -- it only encourages them."

I played trombone in grade school band class. During that time, I once sneezed on a multiplication table.

I've heard of slide trombones, valve trombones, bass trombones, but never a sneeze trombone.

I remember in the Mathematics Factory they used to put multiplication tables in the Long Division. But with the advancement of electronic calculators the Long Division became obsolete as far as I know. Maybe there are some hold outs in the military or something - such as Veterans of the Long Division.

@cfjk - during a Byron Stripling concert, he had guest trombonist Wycliffe Gordon with him. Byron said that Wycliffe asked him, "Would you like me to play a little trombone?" and Byron agreed.
Wycliffe pulls out a soprano trombone. ("a little trombone") Ha.

@MOTW Did he play it using his nose?

My dog makes an identical sound occasionally, although he doesn’t hear a trombone, and it’s not a sneeze…
