For the second day in a row while driving to work the current affairs channel which I have on the car radio has chosen soprano saxophone music to fill the gaps between articles. It dawned on me how much I instinctively abhor the petulant, tarty sound of that instrument and then I remembered an old rule of thumb which was that if a sitcom has a soprano sax in the theme tune it is likely to be crap. The other instrument which usually annoys me is another squeaky one: the violin. I find it quite tolerable when involved in reels and folk music but generally speaking a bit of a nause in orchestras and certainly in the scenario where an untrustworthy looking type pesters restaurant guests with his playing.
So what other instruments annoy?
