I'm sure you all know how to count.  But counting isn't the same in music.  One mournful trombone is solo, but with a swinging trumpet is duo.  Add French horn, mello cello and a violin with zin -- they are a quintet.  It's music that we all adore, the brasses roar, the reeds implore.  And, zin, zin, zin the strings all soar.
