Ok I realise literally no-one wants to listen to my little band kid ramblings but I realised that the 5 stages of grief map onto your reaction when you get a difficult piece in band.
Denial: “No, this can’t be what we’re playing! I mean look at it! What are those 7/8 bars doing there?”
Anger: “Screw this piece. Screw whoever wrote the dumb thing. Screw it’s stupid accidentals and chromatics and weird time signatures. It sounds weird anyway” *scribbles devil horns onto the composer’s name*
Bargaining: “Please can we not play this? I will play anything else, just not any more of this!” (bonus points if this is to the conductor, who naturally ignores it)
Depression: “I’ll never get this piece right.” *stares at music with empty eyes*
Acceptance: “Oh whoa, it’s actually not that bad once you know how it goes. Sounds pretty nice too”
Anyone else? Or am I just dramatic?

attempting to make this post before @srijellyfishtempura steals the idea from me:
picture the back row of a wind band. the brass section. most of them are sensible instruments for sensible musicians, right? they've got valves to send you effortlessly (citation needed) to the right notes, and some nice complicated and compact tubing. they're the corvids of the brass world.
and then... you have the trombones. your basic trombone build is one big ass S-bend of pipe. no complicated bends, no valves, and a big old clown-ass tuning slide that they made extra large so you can play all the notes. it has a specific marking for 'fun' - glissando. the trombone is a kea in the sea of corvids that are the valved members of the brass family.
it's silly. it's frivolous. it makes no attempt at Not being a slide whistle on steroids. and there it is, being a fully functioning instrument and Instrumenting well with the rest of em!

Messed around with Midjourney AI and typed in "New Orleans brass band at night painted by Bill Sienkiewicz" and it spit this out. I can't believe how close it nailed Bill Sienkiewicz Art!
