I hope I got the notation right!

Edited to add:

A B-flat, a D-flat, and an F walk into a bar.

The bartender says to them, "I'm sorry we don't serve minors here"...

So the D-flat leaves and the B-flat and the F have a fifth between them and
go home.

There are long passages of Beethoven's 9th symphony where the double bass section has nothing to do. So one night, they stepped out for a couple beers - only it turned out to be more than a couple. When they came back, it was intermission before the last movement, and one of them took a piece of string and tied the conductor's music together.

Meaning that it was the bottom of the 9th, the basses were loaded, and the score was tied.

Try the veal, and don't forget to tip your waitresses!

Another music joke for my collection!

Heard this one?

A major symphony orchestra was on tour when the conductor suddenly became terribly ill right before a performance. The personnel manager asked if anyone was familiar with the scores, and to his surprise, the next-to-last-chair violist raised his hand and said he'd studied them at Juilliard.

The next-to-last-chair violist conducted the next twelve concerts in four cities. Eventually the conductor recovered and returned to his duties, whereupon the next-to-last-chair violist went back to his section.

His stand partner looked at him and asked, "Where the hell have YOU been?"

Yup!

That is one of my favourites. Good for applying to whatever instrument one wishes to mock.

AAAAUGH!!!

That is definitely the best "walks into a bar" joke I've ever heard.
