I came across the “New Horizons in Music Appreciation” a few years ago, when a friends played me their CD. This is Beethoven’s Fifth symphony(first movement) with a base-ball match-style commentary, which, incidentally, is a pretty good analysis of its melodic construction! I did not realize that it was one of the notorious P D Q compositions until recently. Today I have ordered the CD set “The Wurst of P D Q Bach”,

and I am hoping it will arrive over half term. I have a serious list of domestic chores to get through, and I reckon this should help make light work of heavy going.
