2 minutes: P.D.Q. R.I.P.
Update: 2024-01-18
Description
Peter Schickele was one of my idols. He died on Tuesday, January 16. His creation, P.D.Q. Bach, helped bring much needed self-effacing humor to the world of classical music. Links below to help you get into his (and Victor Borge’s— another giant of classical music parody—) life and work:
Peter Schickele’s Obituary, NY Times
Beethoven’s 5th announced as a baseball game (a classic!)
Report from Hoople (full album- the Beethoven sketch is included)
The Definitive Autobiography of P.D.Q. Bach (1807-1742?)
and we should also mention,
Victor Borge (anything you can find will amuse you!)
