Bow (music) Puns

He has "A History of Violins"

My wife plays violin and her first rehearsal with a new orchestra is near. She had access to an electronic copy of the music, but wondered whether the orchestra would distribute paper copies at the rehearsal. For orchestras, the section leaders decide when everyone's bows will be moving up vs. down and annotate the music accordingly. Copies of the annotated music are distributed to the players. As a trumpet player who's never needed that kind of annotation, I've always been able to use the originals.

Wife: "String players never play from the originals because we have bowings."

Me: "And wind players have Airbuses!"

Wife: "That joke was just plane awful."

Family and I were having a conversation at dinner last night. My sister was educating us about violin equipment prices and such.

Grandpa: Wait, so you're telling me violin bows can cost up to $15,000?

Sister: Yeah, they're really expensive!

Dad: Well I guess if you didn't have one, the music would sound like bowcrap.
