Posted on youtube as a demonstration of a bad musicschool playing Strauss. Something about it makes me feels it was made on purpose by real musicians...Or maybe it´s just because it fits the context of the video. Hilarious none the less.  ;D

I've this before, or something very similar.  I was told it was a group of musicians who played a different instrument then their normal one.  For the audio at least.

There's another one. 


Örebros Kommunala Musikskola
