Annual New York Concerts Announced (posted September 30, 2001)

One of the most frequently asked questions since this Web site was launched (and even before since then) was:  “what happened to the annual P.D.Q. Bach concerts in New York this year?”  Well, here’s your answer:   they’re being done a bit differently this year, but they’re still in New York City during the week between Christmas and New Years.  Check the concert schedule to find out exactly when and where, and to see a few other concerts in other parts of the country that have been recently added to the schedule.  

This is likely to cause even more questions to be asked frequently, like “what works will be played?” and “who’s that other guy who’s sharing top billing with P.D.Q. Bach this year?”  Prof. Schickele is currently researching the answers to those questions, and complete details about the concert will be posted as soon as they are available.
