Operation Instrument-Ectomy
Six words have had their musical instruments removed. The musical instruments have been placed into Group A. The remaining letters of each word have been placed into Group B. Your task is to reconstitute the words by merging each musical instrument with the proper set of letters. Other than merging the two groups together, there is no rearranging of the letters. Example: sand + pne = spanned (SpANneD).
Group A: cornet, drum, flute, harp, oboe, tuba
Group B: elii, iibsr, iin, ncemn, rofn, tmstn
Group A: cornet, drum, flute, harp, oboe, tuba
