An hysterically irreverent examination

of the world of classical music as seen

through the eyes of Johann Sebastian

Bach’s long-forgotten relative, P.D.Q. Bach

and Peter Schickele. Relish such P.D.Q. classics

as the recently-discovered Four Next-to-Last Songs

and the heart-rendering Shepherd on the Rocks, With a

Twist, which features Prof. Schickele playing the tromboon

(a cross between a trombone and a bassoon). The Jekyll

(or is it Hyde?) part of the program features

songs by Peter Schickele, including

the notorious rock ‘n’ roll settings

of famous Shakespeare speeches,

(as heard on Garrison Keillor’s

A Prairie Home Companion).
