Man Overboard!
Oh dearie. Something went terribly wrong at a recent performance of Messiah. You can hear it coming, even if you don't realize it; perhaps you'll think that there's other music playing in the house somewhere. I'd been listening to a CD, which I kept pausing for no reason. Pop quiz: what instrument misfires in this quote? (Thanks, Felsenmusik)

Hi Carumba.
Did the organist put the pedal on his own organ or something?

Purely diabolical! Should I be ashamed of the Schadenfreude I experienced to hear such a big gaff in a public concert?
