Comedy in Music?

Featured Replies

I am just wondering... If you had a piano and a trumpet, and about 2-3 minutes, could you write a piece of music concerto style that cam make somebody laugh, perhaps a silly rythm, jazzy and informal... lets see what you can come up with!!! MHWA!

Does Flugelhorn count?

Then it's already been done:

Clark Terry does "Mumbles" on LEGENDS OF JAZZ

Enjoy :-) What do I win?

That ain't the style!

Comedy through the music is difficult...perhaps incorporating familiar themes in strange settings.... but then, it's more amusing than funny...

Try more visual or theatrical comedy...slapstick....alongside the music:

That is a good statement, The challenge here is to compose your own piece in such a way that it makes you giggle,

Lol look what I started! :p

Congratulations, healey!

I don't write much, but I love the work of Victor Borge.

When I'm playing the piano for my friends at school, I flip keys from major to minor.

"The Entertainer" becomes "The Undertaker".

lol

I also do that thing where you play the music upside down, and I've done the Page-turner routine.

Victor Borge was brilliant.

These Guys are amazing. They're soooooo funny!!!!!

I have seen those guys too. I love them. However, one of my long time favorites by far is P.D.Q. Bach (Peter Scheikle). This is just sort of a little video that will give you an idea of the routine that Peter does about P.D.Q. It is hilarious. I will get you some of my other favorites later.

Igudesman & Joo


Good stuff :D

Tim Minchin - F sharp



I can't imagine how hard that must be!!
