Perhaps Ken Mathieson's arrangement of Morton could include some pauses dedicated to the deaf and dumb society? Since the literary content of the recorded performance is small, indeed is probably no more than an instruction as to how the thing should be performed, who needs words when the arranger can put it in the music. 
And a shouter unable to match Morton in timing and force could probably be counter-productive ...

And there are lots of listmates who would ask indeed, who needs a Klaxon, since tenor saxophones have been used to outdo Klaxons on a regular basis for some decades now (although Prince Robinson could do that snore before 1930) 

And it was not at any of Ken's gigs that one of those Englishman who stick the consonant "r" where it never should be -- drorrings for drawings, and even JanARcek in a supposed pronunciation guide -- could be heard muttering in a low voice over the sound of a few last Autumn leaves falling off a tree (polite applause) 
 
all are bored!  
By yawn beau-knee banks ...
