Time for another musical parody.
I’ve always loved Peggy Lee’s rendition of “Fever.”
Years ago I wrote a parody which I performed for a Classical Revolution PDX when we regularly performed at The Waypost in NE Portland (hence the references to “The Waypost” in the song).
Here I am accompanied by bassist Rob Busey with whom I perform in the Newport Symphony. Thanks, Rob!
Hope you enjoy it.
Stay safe, secure, and sane, friends.
My last music offering was on the serious side. Here is something upbeat and humorous. It is my parody of Meghan Trainor’s “All About That Bass.”
When I first heard her hit, the idea to rewrite the words as “All About That Bratsch'” came to me immediately – “Bratsche” (“Brah-cheh”) is the German word for “viola.”
The words came pretty quickly to me, and then I arranged it for string quartet.
Here are my friends, Casey, Mitchell, Dana, and Erin backing me up on my parody.
