Philip Glass meets Spike Jones!

@BillSalem the basic chords of this piece are, of course, those of JS Bach's first Wohltemperiertes prelude
-
He dares to mock the music of the most profound and prolific composer since Bach?

Why won't The Simpsons have Prof Schickele on? They put every other obscure comic book writer and what-not that I've never heard of on that show.
Come on, Simpsons writers! Professor Schickele (and PDQ Bach) and Tom Lehrer -
before they die!

lol, it's koy-hotsy-totsy!

Koyannasqatsi....koyannasqatsi

According to Wikipedia, Glass (who was a classmate of Schickele's, as others have noted), helped build the reconstruction of the "hardart" for the P.D.Q. Bach "Concerto for Horn and Hardart."

Love it, especially the Kreutzer etude bit.

lol at The Well Tempered Clavier

Really one of my favorite PDQ Bach pieces, in no small part because it's so plausible as an actual Philip Glass composition for the first minute and a half or so...

@SrNutritivo I believe it is supposed to be understood as "Coy Hotsy Totsy".
What many people don't realize is that Prof Schickele and Philip Glass were in music school together. In fact from the first PDQ Bach album, Philip Glass penned part of the "Sanka Cantata".

Very funny and clever. Just reminds me how much I like P. Glass!
