Loading an Orchestra's Instruments for Tour

Movers strain to carry a huge black grand piano up a ramp into a painted truck parked beside a brick warehouse. Nearby, two men carry a double bass while a boy in a yellow raincoat mops up a puddle beside a pile of fallen music stands. A striped tabby cat naps against a pair of timpani drums, and another orange cat perches on a drum near a technician welding a tuba. A queue of musicians in coats and hats waits with violin cases outside an open loading bay stacked with costumes on hangers, while a worker hands a green laundry basket of clothes through the door. A child curls up asleep inside an open cello case on the ground, and across the yard a woman polishes a harp beside a patterned rug. Scattered sheet music, tangled cables and a lone drumstick litter the ground between every group, keeping each cluster of workers distinct.
