I just want to say that this is the best recording of this piece I've seen on YouTube. I really appreciate the fact that you learned to play the right notes, in tempo. (I've got the score, so I know). Too many of the others I've seen look like they could have used more practice, which with a piece like this make it sound like a dumb gimmick (instead of a smart gimmick).
A fine virtuoso work of Schickele #88 + 4 +1!! Bravo! I sense Herr P.D.Q obviously composed that fine work during his soused period, somewhat after his Dazed and Confused interlude, (originally composed for harpsichord five hands, a Bassoon and a posterior) (and set upon a piano) - Superberundo con fortissimo!
Very nice, this work is yet another indication of PDQ Bach's under-appreciated greatness, foreshadowing as it does the works of such later composers as George Gershwin and Ludwig van Beethoven himself. Well done. Bravo.
Just to put in my two cents: the best, be it Jonathan Swift, or Airplane or even the Onion is always delivered with a straight face, and doing so isn't a sign of being screwed in the head.

Did this piece in a talent show in high school. Won the judge's vote, lost the popular vote. It was still an enjoyable experience.

He is real in the sense that Mr.Peter Shikele created him and sometimes the myth transcends reality

PDQ Bach is not a real person. He is made up, never existed.

He's IS SO real, I saw it on TV, and besides that Santa Claus, Easter Bunny, and the Ramadan Rooster are real too. So there.

Uh.... ok? You are screwed in the head. It sure sounded like you thought he was real in your earlier post. It was a little too serious for sarcasm.
