Schroeder (Peanuts) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Schroeder is also the catcher on Charlie Brown's baseball team (though he is always seen walking back to the mound with the baseball, never throwing it -- admitting in one strip he didn't want the other team to discover his lack of ability), and the object of Lucy van Pelt's unrequited infatuation. |
 | | Schroeder is usually depicted sitting at his toy piano, able to pound out multi-octave selections of music, despite the fact that such a piano has a very small realistic range (for instance, and as a running joke early on, the fl keys are merely painted on to the white keys). |
 | | Schroeder plays it in the style of a conventional piano, then a three-piece jazz combo, and finally in the style of a pipe organ, but Lucy cannot recognize the tune until the now-irritated Schroeder plays it, with one finger, in the tones of a normal toy piano. |
