Summary
A group of four musicians in a semi-circle play their instruments -- a viola, violin, harpsichord, and cello. Most of the musicians are seated in chairs, but the violist stands with one leg raised. A dog and cat (who plays amongst some fallen sheet music) are in the foreground left and right, respectively.
