More "Ukiah"
Here is some more ukiah (or haiku) from Dr. Votta.
Man with stick wave to and fro
Orchestra baffled
May we have downbeat? they ask
--
Saxophone hums like hummingbird
Or perhaps like saw
Skill of player is crucial
--
Weather turns humid: reeds die
Woodwind players weep
Must play Mahler symphony
--
A Mozart development:
Changing keys, brass rest.
Graveyard for concentration
--
Bows go up, down, up, down, up
Harmony prevails
Sowing discord, one starts down.
