Hit: 5 Stars
P.D.Q. Bach is the funniest composers of all time. This cd is quite interesting-from the Short Tempered Clavier to the Chorale-Based Peicelets. I fint the subjects of the Fugues hillariuos such as the Jumprope-skipping Song to Beethoven's minor third in Symphonie in c-moll. The little Pickle Book selections are quite odd. The Sonate da Circo is in sseveral languages-German, Spanish, "Russian", and some other language! My favorites are the 3 chorale-based peicelets playedon a 2 manual and No Pedal organ (2 Casio keyboards on top of one another!) I think everyone should at least listen to a PDQ Bach peice. This CD gives a good intro to his "Music" ****Also reccomended-PDQ Bach on the air!!****
