Where he subsequently lost a finger not following directions when operating a mortar..... tisk tisk!!! <br /><br />I thought I spotted the stain, but I'll keep it to myself. :)Dani Jonsson- Lopezhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04640576692543473343noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4447020772809150478.post-73940048770712373572016-04-06T02:38:32.339-04:002016-04-06T02:38:32.339-04:00I'm guessing that these kids were probably pre...I'm guessing that these kids were probably pretty fearful of getting out of line. I don't imagine them running wild like I'd expect American kids.

Many young musicians of this era learned to play several instruments, so I can only guess that the Hubert's herald trumpeters at the back row were usually drummers and percussionists. Sometime soon I'll dedicate another post to this unusual European xylophone.
