This masterpiece made my day. Thank you.
Love it. Absolutely love it.
lol. Good one. I liked it – except for the 12 tone banjo solo.
For some us, that was the point.
If Merle really loved 12 tone that much why isn’t his entire song 12 tone?
Brilliant! but let’s not forget the handful who made dodecaphony work. A real musician can succeed within any confines. It’s the charletons who wasted our time.
Really cute!
Better than the music in some stores over the Christmas period.
When well done, Christmas music can sound wonderful. The Jessye Norman concert in another blogpost is a prime example.
Unfortunately, Christmas music done in bad taste is ubiquitous.
The best recommendation for 12 tone music remains this commercial:

My youtube dream is a video of a mailman singing a twelve-tone melody. Alas, I don’t have the guts to approach my wonderful local mailman with such a proposal. I can only hope that some day a voice student will take a gig in mail delivery and pull it off.
“The three greatest composers since Joachim Raff”!!! How many people catch that I wonder? Too funny. Thanks for posting.
