Audio SamplesListen to P.D.Q. Bach: The Stoned Guest: The Hearer’s Digest Condensed Version. This Condensed Version gives you the intangible essence of the original recording in one small, easy-to-swallow capsule summary. The hyper folks at Hearer’s Digest have created this sample by slicing, dicing, and splicing, until it somewhat resembles excerpts of the original recording that are “severely truncated, but shorter.”
This Hearer’s Digest Condensed Version is made of excerpts from the following: Introduction—Overture from The Stoned Guest—Opera Whiz—“Now is the season” and “I hate to interrupt” from The Stoned Guest—Announcement—“My bonnie lass she smelleth” and “The Queen to me a royal pain doth give” from Two Madrigals from The Triumphs of Thusnelda—“Gesundheit!” and “Don Octave” from The Stoned Guest—Plot Synopsis—“O saviour” from The Stoned Guest. Audio Samples can be played using the free RealAudio player.
