The idea of a musical toilet isn't very new

Inderdaad, Pim. Shakespeare himself wrote:

Quote from: Sir Toby Belch
Why dost thou not go to church in a

galliard and come home in a coranto? My very walk should be a

jig; I would not so much as make water but in a sink-a-pace.

The loo is not for music.  It is for reading.

Birtwistle - Three movements with fanfares

I've mentioned my bizarre musical experience in Brussels here before:

I'd suggest that anything written by a certain German composer who lived from 1587 - 1684 might fit the bill admirably.
1654, surely?

Anything conducted by David Porcelijn?

The Battle of Waterloo (as in Beethoven's not-quite-so-called symphony)?

Unchained Melody?

(...and if only there'd been a flush, royal or otherwise, in Jeu des Cartes...)

Anything by Willie Walton or Vaughan Willie-ams?...

If you find yourself seated there really "stuck", and in need of a mental laxative, why not spend a happy time working out this simple 3-voice canon by William Ellis published in 1652?...

How on earth did we miss anything written by Francis Poulenc?

Or for that matter, anything conducted by Gustavo DooDooMel?

Have we had Samuel Scheidt (1587-1654) ?  OK, I looked him up - but I knew someone with a name like that would be in my Everyman Dictionary of Music

Good morning. This is to be found in its original setting at: http://www.flickr.com/photos/felipe_guerra/2355178381/


The further you modulate from C major, the more you have to wash your hands after playing.
