Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: It's Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning, and today we
- 0:01Speaker 1: call a woman who's about to attend her very first
- 0:04Speaker 1: symphony orchestra concert. She's never been to one before, which
- 0:10Speaker 1: gives us the perfect chance to teach her proper orchestra etiquette.
- 0:15Speaker 2: Because we're the people for that.
- 0:16Speaker 1: Yes, just like when you go anywhere like a bowling alley,
- 0:19Speaker 1: there's certain rules that you have to follow, new proper shoes,
- 0:22Speaker 1: respect other bowlers. The symphony also has some very strict
- 0:26Speaker 1: policies regarding applause. Ah, and if she can't follow them,
- 0:31Speaker 1: she may not be orchestra worthy. In your phone tap
- 0:34Speaker 1: right after this.
- 0:35Speaker 2: Brooking Jeffrey's phone tap on the twenties, Oh hello, I'm
- 0:41Speaker 2: looking to speak with Bethany.
- 0:43Speaker 1: This is she who's calling.
- 0:45Speaker 2: Please, Oh lovely, my name is Gloria Tuttenheim. I'm calling
- 0:48Speaker 2: from the Symphony and Orchestra. And we notice you purchased tickets.
- 0:54Speaker 2: Uh yeah, my husband dead. Oh how wonderful. Well, we
- 1:00Speaker 2: deeply appreciate your contribution to supporting the symphonic arts. I've
- 1:04Speaker 2: billy never gone before, so I'm kind of excited to
- 1:06Speaker 2: see what it's really all about. Oh see, that was
- 1:09Speaker 2: going to be my next question, because your name didn't
- 1:12Speaker 2: pop up as a prior attendee.
- 1:14Speaker 1: Yeah, this meant first time.
- 1:16Speaker 2: My husband's a big fan. I just I said I'd
- 1:19Speaker 2: go with him sooner or later, and I am listen.
- 1:21Speaker 2: That's a lot of words. This all does have me
- 1:24Speaker 2: a little concerned. I don't understand about what. I don't know.
- 1:28Speaker 2: If you've heard about this then it was in the
- 1:30Speaker 2: newspaper recently, the crackdown on the clap down. No, I
- 1:35Speaker 2: haven't heard of that. About three weeks ago, we also
- 1:38Speaker 2: had a new b attend and after one of the
- 1:41Speaker 2: musical interludes, they clapped inappropriately. What and it disrupted the
- 1:46Speaker 2: entire set for clapping, Yes, for clapping. We had an
- 1:51Speaker 2: obo player walk off crying, and the triangle player has quit.
- 1:54Speaker 2: The industry refuses to triangulate. My god, really, Yes, I
- 1:59Speaker 2: didn't know clap I think could throw them off.
- 2:01Speaker 1: I thought people clapped at these shows all the time.
- 2:03Speaker 2: Well they do, but you have to know the right
- 2:06Speaker 2: moment to give your manual ovation.
- 2:09Speaker 1: But now I'm thinking I shouldn't clap.
- 2:12Speaker 2: I don't want to throw anybody off. Oh that would
- 2:16Speaker 2: be another terrible mistake, especially where your seats are you'll
- 2:20Speaker 2: be close enough to the woodwinds where they can see you,
- 2:22Speaker 2: and if they feel underappreciated, they could walk off as well. God, well,
- 2:27Speaker 2: that's why I'm here to help you. We're going to
- 2:29Speaker 2: do a clap role play over the phone, just to
- 2:32Speaker 2: make sure you're ready. I don't understand what am I
- 2:34Speaker 2: supposed to do. Well, I'm going to play a little
- 2:36Speaker 2: music and when it stops we'll hear what your response is? What? Okay?
- 2:50Speaker 2: And we needed you? There? Bet? That was your cue?
- 2:56Speaker 2: What have we been talking about? I don't know the rules? Yes,
- 3:01Speaker 2: that is obvious. Bean. Now the violinist has given you
- 3:04Speaker 2: side eye and it's probably ruined his night and he
- 3:06Speaker 2: could shame spiral after the show. Yeah, that seems a
- 3:09Speaker 2: little dramatic. I thought we were just practicing arts. Is dramatic?
- 3:13Speaker 2: Let's go again? Do I do it now? Hello? No? No? No?
- 3:27Speaker 2: Did I do it right? I just needed two gentle
- 3:30Speaker 2: collaps there? Why did you do four? Oh? Sorry?
- 3:34Speaker 1: Is there a guide or something I.
- 3:36Speaker 2: Can follow or beany That's what we're doing now. I'm
- 3:39Speaker 2: instructing you pay attention. I need something like that I
- 3:42Speaker 2: can read. Are you sure you're wanting to attend the symphony.
- 3:46Speaker 1: I don't no anymore. This is getting very complicated.
- 3:50Speaker 2: It's music. I thought you just sit back and enjoy
- 3:53Speaker 2: the music. Rule. This is a symphony, not a limp
- 3:57Speaker 2: biscuit concert. Oh my god, why focus? I am trying
- 4:02Speaker 2: really hard. I just don't know what to do. Remember
- 4:05Speaker 2: two soft claps like a polite door knock from a
- 4:08Speaker 2: shy ghost. What and here we go? What am I
- 4:13Speaker 2: supposed to do? Is it now?
- 4:19Speaker 1: Uh?
- 4:22Speaker 2: Okay? Okay? Was that right? Did I mess it up? Well?
- 4:26Speaker 2: I will say a little amateur sounding. I don't know
- 4:30Speaker 2: what I'm doing wrong. I'm sorry. Well, maybe you can
- 4:33Speaker 2: answer me this. How many claps should you give following
- 4:36Speaker 2: a prank phone call?
- 4:38Speaker 1: What?
- 4:38Speaker 2: It's zero, Bethany, no clapping, just laughing.
- 4:43Speaker 1: This is a plank call.
- 4:44Speaker 2: You're actually on the radio right now with Brig and
- 4:46Speaker 2: Jeffrey in the morning. Bethany, your husband set you up out.
- 4:52Speaker 2: Tom said that you're a little nervous because you've never
- 4:54Speaker 2: been to the symphony before, so we wanted to get
- 4:56Speaker 2: you ready. Oh my god, that poor oval. I already
- 5:00Speaker 2: stopped because somebody clapped wrong. And what you did to
- 5:04Speaker 2: that violinist. We won't even speak a P. Please forgive me,
