The Really Terrible Orchestra of the Triangle (founded and conducted by W. Sands Hobgood, photo above) exists to encourage those who have been prevented from playing music together with others, either through lack of talent or some other factor, to rehearse and perform in an ensemble of similarly afflicted players.
From a humble beginning in May 2008, the ensemble has grown into a 75-piece symphony orchestra. Except that they're pretty terrible. Terrible, in the French sense of Des Enfants Terribles... in that while they haven't made fun of Bach or Mozart yet, they certainly have had a naughty excursion or two with Strauss and Tchaikovsky.
