Valery is a seriously small man, a Russian man. I can only imagine the collective stupidity of the airport clowns......"Look out for that terrorist trumpet player, his double Cs are lethal"
"Is that Viola loaded?"
"What kind of ammo does that Bassoon use?"
Maybe if we had better educated agents, we could whip out our instruments and the agents would recognize them for what they are, tools that produce beauty, not mayhem.
Valery's treatment was inexcusable.
