Well, folks . . .
Peterson's Parodies is getting bigger and better.
The contents of this site, as they existed on March 27, 2006, may now be found at a mercifully-easy-to-remember
URL: www.petersonsparodies.com. Adjust your browsers accordingly, and join me there. There are songs to be sung, and a wonderful
fling to be flung, as the poet says.
Meanwhile, parodies since March 27, 2006, will be posted here until further notice.
("The-Day-After-Tomorrow's Songs . . . Today!" I suppose you'd call it.) Whenever I get around to uploading
them, of course.
Until then, you may find them in the archives of Death and Taxes, where I blog under my nom de guerre, Nathaniel DesH. Petrikov. Death and Taxes features
stuff hot off the press. You're cordially invited to visit me there, as well; comments are welcome.
Below is a link to a printable copy of The Defined Comedy (1985), an embarrassingly sophomoric
parody of Dante's Divine Comedy set to the first, second and fourth movements of Beethoven's Symphony No. 5 in
C minor, and annotated to within an inch of its life. This wee opus was written to fit the 1961 recording of Beethoven's Fifth with Leonard Bernstein and the New York Philharmonic.
