Beethoven's Wig: Sing Along Piano Classics

Beethoven's Wig: Sing Along Piano Classics

In this delightful collection, Beethoven's Wig takes on the greatest piano hits of classical music with Richard Perlmutter's witty, irreverent and highly entertaining lyrics. The album features piano works by Mozart, Beethoven, Chopin, Brahms, Debussy, Stravinsky and Mussorgsky, as well as modern composers Schoenberg and Cowell. Perlmutter also serves up humorous lyrical renditions of The Entertainer and Chopsticks. Recorded at the legendary Village Recorders in Los Angeles, and at the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion at the Music Center, this album features lead vocals by Perlmutter, backed by his all-star cast of vocalists Elin Carlson, Jennifer Barnes, Jonathan Mack and Michael Geiger. All piano performances are by Grant Gershon. Opening a door to classical music for young and old, Beethoven's Wig is one of the most honored groups in family music, with 46 national awards and 4 Grammy Award Nominations. The instrumental version of each piece is included without lyrics.
