Well I have to pass along a Marcellus story

When he was being conducted by Leopold Stokowski (known for being flamboyant and encouraging non traditional interpretations) Bob Marcellus finished the second enunciation and Stokowski just looked at him and said, "Why did you stop?"

Then he went into a lecture about how the solos represent the passionately charged vocalizations of "screaming eunuchs." He further explained that though eunuchs were not capable of reproduction, they provided every other need to the harem.
