The Synopsis

For decades, Peter Schickele has kept audiences rolling in the aisles with his rib-tickling presentations of the alleged music of P.D.Q. Bach, classical music's answer to the Marx Brothers. This special December 2005 performance of P.D.Q.'s greatest hits celebrates 40 years of this uniquely appealing act. Includes Schleptet in Eb major, Iphigenia in Brooklyn, Unbegun Symphony, Fuga Meshuga, The Seasonings, and New Horizons in Music Appreciation. Extras include Unbegun Symphony with theme identification, Odden und Enden (rounds), KUHT interview with Peter Schickele, and more.
