QUIZ RECAP

Sackbut, (from Old French saqueboute: "pull-push"), an early trombone, was invented in the 15th century, probably in Burgundy. It has thicker walls than the modern trombone, imparting a softer tone, and its bell is narrower.

The sackbut answered the need for a lower-pitched trumpet that composers of the time sought. Its telescoping slide mechanism is retained in the modern trombone.

The word "sackbut" also go the biggest laugh at Chuy's last night as four teams played seven solid rounds of trivia. Team Trainwreck squeaked out a four point victory over Fam Damily, and Box Full OF Puppies finished in third place.
