Review:
This concept parody piece pits eccentric composer Eric Satie performing his famous Gymnopedie #1 against those pesky woodpeckers, who hammer their way into the music. Make sure to read the background and performance notes for ideas to add to the hilarity of this sure-to-please piece!
"There once was a composer named Eric
His music was quite esoteric
But the woodpeckers were mad
outside of his pad
They eventually drove him hysteric!"
