Parlando: Zappa Files His Taxes

SCHNITTKE – Gogol Suite
ZAPPA – The Adventures of Gregory Peccary
Morgan Mastrangelo, tenor
How can music capture the absurdity of modern life and bureaucracy? Alfred Schnittke's Gogol Suite channels the grotesque comedy of 19th-century Russia's greatest satirist, while Frank Zappa's Adventures of Gregory Peccary sends a hapless pig through a labyrinth of corporate nonsense and calendar reform. Tenor Morgan Mastrangelo joins Parlando as satirical music takes aim at the mundane.
