Going for a song: one orchestra

APorchestra2.jpg Many bizarre items have been put up for sale on the auction website eBay: now someone is selling a 90-strong symphony orchestra. The Guardian reports.

"The City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra is flogging a little of its time, offering a "once in a lifetime opportunity to conduct the CBSO" with a "personal conducting lesson with CBSO maestro".

... The money raised from the auction will go towards the orchestra's community and education programme".
