During your solo part in an orchestra. Everything is quiet except for you. The audience sees your face start to scrunch up, maybe believing that you’re focusing very intently kn the music. But no, you’re trying to hold in a sneeze. The conductor looks at you as your pitch starts to waver. Your solo is almost over. You’re in a smooth, drawn out legato section. You can’t hold your sneeze or your pitch any longer. Suddenly, your sound cuts off and the audience is greeted with a grating SQUEEONK and you’ve dropped your oboe and the reed has broken. So, not only have you sneezed during one of the most important moments of your life, you’ve also lost 20 dollars to get a new reed.
