Definitive Biography of P.D.Q. Bach Paperback - 1998
by Peter Composer Schickele
First line
It was cold and dark and wet in Leipzig on the night of the 31st of March 1742.
From the jacket flap
What little-known son of a famous genius has been called:
"A musical blight" "A one-man plague"
"History's most justifiably neglected composer" "The worst musician ever to trod organ pedals" "A pimple on the face of music"
In this long-awaited hoax, possibly the most unimportant piece of scholarship in over two thousand years, Professor Peter Schickele has finally succeeded in ripping the veil of obscurity from the most unusual -- to put it kindly -- composer in the history of music: P.D.Q. Bach, the last and unquestionably the least of the great Johann Sebastian Bach's many children.
