P. D. Q. Bach
P. D. Q. Bach is a fictitious composer invented by musical satirist "Professor" Peter Schickele. Schickele developed a five-decade-long career, performing the "discovered" works of the "only forgotten son" of the Bach family. Schickele's music combines parodies of musicological scholarship, the conventions of Baroque and classical music, and some slapstick comedy. The name "P. D. Q." is a parody of the three-part names given to some members of the Bach family that are commonly reduced to initials, such as C. P. E., for Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach. ''PDQ'' is an initialism for "pretty damned quick".
==Biography==
Schickele gives a humorous fictional biography of the composer〔Schickele, Peter. ''The Definitive Biography of P. D. Q. Bach''〕 according to which P. D. Q. Bach was born in Leipzig on March 31, 1742,〔Schickele, Peter. ''The Definitive Biography of P. D. Q. Bach'', page 3: "the night of the 31st of March, 1742," "giving birth to his twenty-first child," "at one minute after midnight"〕 the son of Johann Sebastian Bach and Anna Magdalena Bach; the twenty-first of Johann's twenty children.〔 He died May 5, 1807,〔http://www.schickele.com/pdqbio.htm〕 though his birth and death years are often listed on album literature in reverse, as "(1807–1742)?".〔http://www.schickele.com/shoppe/pdqrec/evening.htm〕 According to Schickele, P. D. Q. "possessed the originality of Johann Christian, the arrogance of Carl Philipp Emanuel, and the obscurity of Johann Christoph Friedrich."〔
Schickele began working on the character while studying at the Aspen Music Festival and School and at Juilliard, and has performed a variety of P.D.Q. Bach shows over the years, although as of 2012 he has largely stopped touring due to age.〔(Schickele.com concert schedule )〕
