Some sort of disease or parasite causes ducks to grow twelve times their size and go on violent rampages...
I don't think cellists alone would survive. When you think of what they might possess that would deter the diseased angry birds, there are others who would share those things. So... other string players like violinists might still be around or instrument craftsman or even carpenters. It could have to do with the material that makes up the instrument- then those groups might be appropriate. The ducks might hate certain types of wood or cleaning solution or wood polish. -Or horse hair from the bow?
Unless it's the sound of the instrument that they don't like. There would be plenty of survivors in that scenario since all sorts of instruments and objects can replicate the sound frequency of cellos. A recording might very well work!
Or if cellists really are the only ones left, it must be because they were locked away some where safe while everyone else died.
[ That's the short version with minimal explanation. ]
