So you probably have listened to the Pervertimento for Bagpipes, Bicycle and Balloons, S. 66 by P.D.Q. Bach and its five regular movements:

Allegro moulto
Romanze II (Adagio Sireno)
Minaret and Trio
Romanze I (Chi Largo)
Presto Changio

What a dynamic work! It caused a real "chain" reaction in the audience when I saw it years ago. Unfortunately a repeat performace turned out rather flat. :wink:
My daughter loves it (my wife doesn't. So far, though, she hasn't accused me of performing diverse perverse and unnatural acts in front of my daughter).
Hey, good for your daughter! Most women seem not to like old PDQ (my wife actively disliked Herr Schickele). Maybe she (your daughter) will grow up to be an exception to the rule! You go, girl!

And now for the Echo Sonata for Two Unfriendly Groups of Instruments, Schickele Number 9-9-9-9--9-9-9999...
