A fun and captivating performance is coming to the Outer Banks:  the “discovered works” of P.D.Q. Bach, a fictional composer invented and performed by musical satirist “Professor” Peter Schickele.  The show is the sixth performance of the 27th Outer Banks Forum performing arts series, and it will take place Sat., March 27 at 7:30 p.m., at the First Flight High School in Kill Devil Hills.

“Revel in an evening of humor and music with the tireless “Professor” who has kept audiences in stitches with his presentation of P.D.Q. Bach’s uniquely typical music since 1965,” said Eddie Cooke, president of the Outer Banks Forum for the Lively Arts. “The four-time Grammy award winner’s show has been called ‘the greatest comedy-in-music act before the public today’. “

In addition to his annual concerts in New York City, he has appeared with over 50 orchestras, ranging from the Boston Symphony Orchestra, the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, the Cleveland Orchestra, the New York Philharmonic, the London Sym-phony Orchestra and the Los Angeles Philharmonic to the New York Pick-Up Ensemble; and his self-contained show The Intimate P.D.Q. Bach (featuring the Semi-Pro Musica Antiqua) has played cities and campuses from Maine to California.

P.D.Q. Bach – The Jekyll and Hyde Tour’s performance is sponsored by Albemarle Eye Center, Elizabeth R and Dare County Arts Council.
