The Drunken Lord of the Brasswinds

Thanks to dismallyoriented, we just learned of the existence of the "tromboon" ("a cross between a trombone and a bassoon, having all the disadvantages of both"). According to Wikipedia, the sound quality is "best described as comical and loud."

It truly exists. The Wikipedia has a sound file: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Tromboon-sample.ogg

Shared pain is lessened, shared joy is increased, and thus do I now share it with you. As a former school bassoonist, it is my duty.

Oh my god I didn't expect you to share it further

As thanks(?) I have also found a piece (written by the same jokester who invented the tromboon in the first place) that utilizes this delightful fucking sound. The link should be time stamped appropriately, but it features in "Andante aleghieri" and "Four voice frugue". I'm sure someone will get a laugh out of the list of instruments in the video description as well.
