[JoySprung]

Batman!

[sgordonmark]

Thank you Messrs Perlman and Schickele for your wonderful performances!!

[Svm777]

Just today I came across P.D.Q. Bach, while doing some researches about Mozart. And I ended up on these awesome, awesome two videos here !

How amazing is the Internet !

[cerberus144]

John Williams looks like he's having fun XD

[rossyxan]

funniest bit 7:30 lmfaoo

[MyMusic0201]

Wonderful. I laughed out so loud

[Rephrat]

hava nagila !! great hummus in pita prof. scheckele.

[MagnusPrime01]

That was cool, watching Prof. Schickele playing the bow with the violin!

[spind]

Itzhak Perlman - the greatest !

[MissEighties]

EFFING AWESOME!!!

[rodriggoviolin]

Este filme é hilário... o professor do 1º Curso de Música da ASSATEMEC colocou na última aula do curso... muito bom... Excelente...

[tuuraatnva]

Very nice!

[Rinhos]

10 minutes of pure laughs!!!!!! this is absolutely amazing!

and at 9:00 there's a quote from Milhaud's "création du monde"!

[Punkerthanthou6]

This is why I'm proud to be a Bostonian. :) <3

[mikalmmd]

That is a GREAT idea! Although I would substitute Rubinstein for Horowitz. I think he had a better sense of humor. Thanks for the comment.

[BenMcCormack91]

That's three of my favorite musicians on the same stage - John Williams, Itzhak Perlman, and Peter Shickele. Now if only we could get Horowitz, Rostropovich, and Borge, it would be a real party.

[bibifrijam]

8'40 is absolutely hilarious ......

[uranrising]

Brilliant. Wonderfully sustained humour, with so many great jokes, and original ways to play the violin.

A joy, a treasure. Only 15.000 views? Spread the word.

[TheMaestroBrad]

Is that Perlman's wife, Toby, at 2:06?

[liquidrunning]

This is my favourite type of comedy, strangely.

[gypzyjz]

Hava Nagila. HIlarious!!! This is sooo awesome!!

[jcocupa]

I just one thing to tell... jajajajajajajajajajajajajajaja­jajajajajajajajajajajajajajaja­jajajajajajajajajajajajajajaja­jajajajajajajajajajajajajajaja­jajajajajajajajajajajajajajaja­jajajajajajajajajajajajajajaja­jajajajajajajajajajajajajajaja­jajajajajajajajajajajajajaja

[corki222]

Fair bit of "Hava Nagila" in there, too!

Brilliant! Perlman has excellent comedic timing. And Schickele as always has a fantastic deadpan.

[Tyrrlin]

You say "perhaps a heretofore unexpected comedic genius"...

Itzhak Perlman is a *very* funny man. I've seen his interviews on late night TV, as well as having the pleasure of seeing him live in concert. He's got a very well-developed sense of humor. Amazing man, and well-chosen for this video.

[NSResponder]

Brilliant!

-jcr

[RantingTrent]

Delightful

lol  :)

[Fastopen]

ha ha ha ha!!!! excellent. Perlman is the best!.

[kikakon]

Really hilarious!

[kadeespatch]

Just too Good

[ThaSchwab]

I have since recalled that 4:01 is a quote from Mozart's Piano and Wind Quintet?

[xXLeafXNinjaXx]

Probably P.D.Q. Bach (Prof. Schickele) based his works off other people's hahaha

[TomBarristerX]

That's where that's from, and I hear excerpts from various Mozart works elsewhere.

[flutist218]

I heard HotCross Buns, HavaNagila, Bat Man Theme and a few others.....

LMAO!!

[Universalist27]

You can hear part of the sesame street theme around 4:48. If not that it's something else but I'm pretty sure its from some kids show.

[ThaSchwab]

I can't remember what piece the part at 4:01 is from; could someone refresh my memory?

[WeirdBeard42]

Thank you! I had this on video but didn't label it adequately. I'm glad to finally see it again after how many years.

[ItzhakRoxMySox]

That may have been the most brilliant thing I've ever seen.

[jeffersonfsoares]

nossa esse video é d+ muito engraçado

o Perlman cantando alem de excelente virtuose é um excelente humorista a cada dia que passa admiro mais Itzhak Perlman

[janmannmmpp]

Truly hysterical! I love Perlman's fingering up the violin right on to his face!
