I'm assuming that the excerpt you're talking about would be in his work ''Harrison Bergeron'' where Harrison was with the musicians. Vonnegut used irony in that situation when the handicapped musicians - expected to be good at playing their instruments - were not as good as they were expected to be even when they were 'relieved' of their handicaps.

William Blake's "The School Boy"

nydimaria [60]

The School Boy" is a poem written in the pastoral tradition that focuses on the downsides of formal learning. It considers how going to school on a summer day "drives all joy away".The boy in this poem is more interested in escaping his classroom than he is with anything his teacher is trying to teach. In lines 16-20, a child in school is compared to a bird in a cage.Meaning something that was born to be free and in nature, is instead trapped inside and made to be obedient. Hope this helps;)
