Tok tok. Ahem. Is everyone ready? Now, it’s such a velvet evening that I think we can really count on admirable acoustics. I want a top-notch performance. Woodwinds! Bass! Percussion! Strings! Have you practiced?
Cicadas in the trees, step forward, if you please. A nice loud zing. Yes, just like that! Crickets? Can we have a trill and a chirp? Perfect. Everyone, please base yourselves on this. Frogs and toads, line up your lily pads! You are instruments of this forest orchestra as well, you know. We’ll need a good, deep vibration from the pond if we are to have a decent symphony; I want to hear it all the way through the blades of grass on the other side.
Grasshoppers, unite! You are keeping time tonight. Balance, per favore. We’re all relying on you.
Alright. Owls, with your mighty win
