To the Gentleman in Row E
Dear Sir, we in Row E are well aware
Your soul is steeped in music to the core.
You love, we notice, each succeeding air
More deeply than the one which came before.
Your soul is steeped in music to the core.
You love, we notice, each succeeding air
More deeply than the one which came before.
You lead the orchestra in perfect time,
With ever-nodding head you set the pace,
We in Row E consider it a crime
You are not in Sir Thomas Beecham’s place.
With ever-
We in Row E consider it a crime
You are not in Sir Thomas Beecham’s place.
Your lily hands most delicately haver,
Each phrase is ended with a graceful twist,
You know, it seems, each breve and semi-quaver,
And play them gently on your other wrist.

You know, it seems, each breve and semi-
And play them gently on your other wrist.
Sometimes you hum the least familiar portions
And beat upon the floor a faint tattoo,
Though we can stand a lot of your contortions,
We shouldn’t tap too much if we were you!

Dear Sir, we need no musical instructor,
We also sang in oratorio,
And if you were a really good conductor,
Our lightning would have struck you hours ago!
