Euphonium Jokes
Don't get me wrong, I absolutely LOVE the sound of the euphonium; I admire many euphonium players, and some of the best musicians I know are euphonium players.
That being said, I heard a father make a comment regarding his family: "If you can't be mocked, you can't be a part of this family."
So here we go:
"Did that euphonium come with a baton?"
How do you get a euphonium player to play FF?
Write "pp espressivo" on their part.
Why don't euphonium players play hide and seek?
No one would bother looking for them.
Please add your favorites!

Re: Euphonium Jokes
What did the euphonium say to the tuba?
Nothing. Euphoniums are inanimate objects and can not speak.

Guy drives to New York and leaves his car unlocked with his euphonium in the back seat.
When he comes back to his car (you guessed it) his car is filled with euphoniums.

You know a Euphorium is sort of like the old Orgasmatron from Woody Allen's Sleeper!

What's the difference between a euphonium player and a pizza?
A pizza can feed a family of four.

Re: Euphonium Jokes
And they left their instruments there...bloke wrote:A euphonium quartet was hired by a Catholic church to play an Oktoberfest gig.
They had some cute arrangements, and at at the end while they were packing up the rector came up to them told them what a great job they had done, and assured them that they would be hired back the following year.
The leader of the group responded, "Wow. That's great! ...May we leave our instruments here?"

Re: Euphonium Jokes
While warming up my euphonium before band rehearsal started, I said to the ensemble's baritone sax player "You call that thing a saxophone?" He replied "You call that thing a tuba?" Well anyway, I thought it was funny. Certainly shut me up.
