With respect to the vegetable orchestra, I assert that playing on an
turnip or carrot will produce a sound character no different than if one
played on a an organic turnip or carrot. This assertion furthers my
thesis that the sound character of the vegetable is independent of the
vegetable type. So if you put a carrot or turnip into your mouth, by
the time the air strikess the body of the turnip or carrot, the sound is
essentially formed, and anyone who thinks the contrary probably has the
kind of diminished intellect that permits them to play on a horse
radish.

Furthermore, only a vegetarian is capable producing a really dark sound
on such an instrument.

My wisdom is transcendent.
