    Toscanini was rehearsing his NBC Orchestra in New York. True to his reputation, he harangued various members of the orchestra about the inadequacy of their playing.

    Eventually the tuba player could stand it no longer. Up and out.

    At the door he turned and shouted: “Nerts.”

    “It’s too late to apologise now,” shot back Toscanini.
