What do you call the man that murdered Anton Webern?

A serial killer!

Btw, there are already a few threads for this. Why didn't you just bump one of those?

Well the answer is simple. NOTHING.... also it is quite sexist to think that all composers are he's. :)

Once there was a really great saxophone player. But he couldn´t play the bridge to "Somewhere over the rainbow". It was really getting to him so one day he decided to end his life by jumping from a roof. And as he lies on the street on the verge of dying the last thing he hears is the ambulance going "waah, waah".

That´s bad because car sirens doesnt play a minor third, at least not where I live.
