According to Professor Peter Schickele, P.D.Q. Bach’s “SAFE” SEXTET has been so named because its manuscript was the only object left behind when burglars made off with the valuables from a hotel safe. The work makes use of many innovative sounds, such as a twangy, out of tune harp, rattling contrabassoon keys, and unexpected blues licks. Made up of several sections played without a break, the “SAFE” SEXTET highlights P.D.Q. Bach’s “unique” approach to musical pacing and drama, including a chaconne that transforms into a romantic 1950’s ballad.
