All Schickele Mixed-Up


I just finished a concert with Peter Schickele. It was a blast. The Octoot was amazing. And the grand piece was a smash. PDQ Bach himself was quite a riot. And Professor Schickele was quite adept at keeping him incheck. The melodies were familiar of course. At times becoming odd and lost in translation...Or perhaps becoming confused with other familiar melodies; all of them creating a harmonious cacophony of intermixed chaos and laughter. The concert was fun. And I enjoyed gurgling on the final Bb in the second movement. The audience enjoyed it as well.
