  • Trashionals 12 Round 13 Toss-Ups
    TRASHionals 12 Round 13 Toss-Ups 1. In a 1989 Saturday Night Live skit, Billy Joel played a master of this instrument on an East Berlin game show as the rest of the cast defected to the West. Renaissance era versions of this instrument reflect its Germanic name, but those made since the 17th century generally use metal bars. A trio of them are used in Carl Orff's Carmina Burana. It's also prominently featured in Mozart's The Magic Flute, though most orchestras now use a celesta for those parts. It's sometimes used in jazz but most players prefer the wooden marimba or vibraphone. It's the source of the high tones in the introduction to Jimi Hendrix's "Little Wing" and is heard throughout Radiohead's "No Surprises." For ten points name this percussion instrument whose name is German for "play of bells." Answer: glockenspiel (or bell lyre or campanelli) 2. Writing it, says the author, was "the grand result of retaining sanity while studying at Washington & Lee and practicing law", and it was the first work of fiction to appear on the NY Times Trade Paperback Bestseller list. Minor characters include Shirl Ravenlock, one of two female characters in this 726 page work, and Acton, Fandrez, and Ginnisson, commanders of the Tyrsian Border Legion. The action begins 2000 years after a nuclear holocaust in the town of Shady Vale, when the son of Bremen tells a half-elf that he is the last of the line of King Jerle, and that Skull Bearers will soon arrive.
