It's Friday: time for a bit of whimsy as some people prepare for a summer weekend, and others prepare ... for other things.
Whether they will admit it or not, orchestral conductors rely on the percussion section to keep things moving. The percussionists keep time, they also add just the right accent here and there to make the music 'sing'. The truth is that almost anything can be transformed into a percussion instrument and with a bit of musical knowlege and just the right balance of humor and genius ... well, see for yourself.
The composer of this masterpiece was Leroy Anderson, and the piece in question is simply called The Typewriter. Try doing this with a laptop!
