The correct answer to this Microsoft Rewards Bing HomePage Trivial quiz question is:B: The shape of the instrument

The largest folk festival in the world wouldn’t be complete without brass bands playing traditional Bavarian tunes. The ‘oom-pah’ rhythm heard in many Oktoberfest songs and polkas is provided by the largest brass instrument, the tuba.

But the massive instrument is hard to carry when marching, so American composer John Philip Sousa commissioned the sousaphone in 1893. A sousaphone is a tuba shaped to wrap around the player so that they can ‘wear’ the instrument, which makes walking while playing much easier.
