Farewell to a talented composer and a funny guy. I loved listening to "Schickele Mix." If you haven't heard Peter Schickele's... sorry, I mean P.D.Q. Bach's "Music for an Awful Lot of Winds and Percussion," you should check it out. This is one of the funnier obituaries you will ever read. #Music #Comedy #PeterSchickele nytimes.com/2024/01/17/arts/mu

@michaelmagras What an incredible talent. Back when I was a music student, I had the pleasure of seeing a performance by him in upstate NY. He entered from the balcony, and had to zip line down to the stage. When I met my husband, I knew it was meant to be, because he listened to Schickele Mix, and I didn’t have to explain anything. @bkahn
