Concerts, orchestras and live gigs, sentence 1

Picture walking into a concert hall: everyone is screeching and tooting at once; that is not the music but tuning up, like footballers stretching before a match; the oboe plays a note called A, everyone matches it, and the noise stops when the conductor walks on.

Who acts: you, everyone, that, footballers, oboe, noise · What happens: picture, walk, screech, toot, not be, tune up · To what, where: concert hall, music, footballers, note · Speech: someone speaks here
