Musically Speaking

Reader 1: A single person who sings a song with no one else to sing along is singing a solo. (And not playing polo.) There hasnt been a duet yet with less than two musicians. And they may sing or play a tune in various positions. It takes three-o to make a trio. But take four and I bet that youll get a quartet. Lots of singers? Dont ignore us! Were the gang thats called the chorus. With instruments? Then what you see is a marching band or a symphony.
