One-man Band
The fiddle was out of tune, as he'd discovered when he tried to play it. It had been in a dusty case next to what looked like a bass, but was flatter and strangely decorated. He'd ignored the unusual instrument in favour of the fiddle, which he was now attempting to tune. It wasn't terribly difficult, fortunately, but the off-tune scraping noises that resulted from his efforts would probably irritate any unlucky listener within earshot.
Not that this was a consideration he wasted any thought on. He was too delighted with having found an intact and functional instrument to play. Presently, having satisfied himself with the fiddle's sound, he checked the bow carefully - again - before setting it against the strings. 'Durang's Hornpipe' would be a good piece to begin with, in order to see how decently this fiddle played.

Re: One-man Band
Hearing music in this unsettlingly confusing place was a surprising relief. He had been wandering about the corridors, up and down stairs, and past rooms without the barest idea what was what or where he even was. Nothing about this building was familiar. The complete lack of anything he could recognise made Martin exceedingly nervous.
The strains of music from beyond a half-closed door were like a lifeline. Not the least because music being played meant there was somebody else here. He was not alone. Martin adjusted the seat of his shako on his head, self-conscious of the fact that even here, he had to make a proper turnout. Then, pausing to draw in a steadying breath, he placed a palm flat against the door and cautiously pushed it open.
"H-h-hello?"
