Those who know of Sir Thomas Beecham, the legendary conductor who founded the famous symphonic orchestras the London Philharmonic and the Royal Philharmonic will know of his, often acerbic, wit.

Once during an orchestral rehearsal he admonished the young cellist as under:

"Madam, you have between your legs an instrument capable of giving pleasure to thousands and all you can do is scratch it?"


Where has such wonderful wit disappeared?
