The members of the orchestra are divided into four sections: woodwinds, brass, strings, and percussion. There's also someone standing in front of all these other folks playing no instrument at all. This would be the conductor. It is generally assumed that the conductor is required to make musical decisions and to hold all of the instruments together in a cohesive interpretation of any given work. Not so. Rather, the conductor is necessary because the four groups would rather eat Velveeta than have anything to do with someone from another section.

Longing for the warmth of bed sheets, still I sat there doing spreadsheets.
Having reached the bottom line I took a floppy from the drawer,
I then invoked the SAVE command and waited for the disk to store,
Only this and nothing more.
