	Ink 19 :: Peter Schickele Meets P.D.Q. Bach
		Schickele's performance so amazing -- he actually gets to make fun of the Bach clan, and people seem to accept it.
		Schickele merely carried this idea to its logical conclusion, and used it an artifice for his own very distorted takes on composition.
		Here was the Schickele we had come to see -- portraying P.D.Q.'s distorted light opera classic of a cowboy coming to grips with a family he never knew.

	Reviews: P.D.Q. Bach and Peter Schickele: The Jekyll and Hyde Tour
		Schickele made one of his patented off-the-wall entrances (this time via wheelchair), and the laughter barely ever subsided for the next two hours.
		Assisting Schickele throughout the night (in the merriment and the music) were tenor David Dusing and soprano Michele Eaton.
		After intermission, there were the patented rounds for which both Schickele and P.D.Q. Bach are justly famous, plus a cycle of songs with a more serious bent, which hinted at the true level of compositional gift Schickele seems to try so hard to hide under his silliness.

		This is another classic member of the P.D.Q. Bach collection by Peter Schickele, on which the good Professor takes us on a journey through P.D.Q.'s writing for different milieus.
		Also on the programme is one of Peter Schickele's own pastiche works: "Eine Kleine Nichtmusik," which is a justly famous and side-splitting re-composition of Mozart's "Eine Kleine Nachtmusik" with added woodwind and brass parts.
		Whether you laugh or scoff at this, it is undeniably a prime example of the fact that Peter Schickele really is an accomplished and learned musician- only someone with a deeply-honed musical background could pull off a spoof like this in such a way that it actually works.
