So I went, very anxious, to one of the trombonists of the Opera orchestra.
"Musicians of To-Day"
Romain Rolland Commentator: Claude Landi
I played with the band for five years, and while I never got out of the "thump section," which was what the trombonists and snare drummers and the other aristocrats of the band call the altos, I had all the fun and adventures that a high-priced musician could have had, and was perfectly happy.

trombonists seem to be temperamental, and when they are not changing jobs they are resigning from the band because they are not allowed to play enough solos.
