PETER SCHICKELE Peter Schickele – composer, musician, author, satirist – is internationally recognized as one of the most versatile artists in the field of music. He graduated from Swarthmore and studied composition with Roy Harris and Darius Milhaud, and at The Juilliard School of Music with Vincent Persichetti and William Bergsma. He composed music for high schools in Los Angeles and then taught at Juilliard until 1965, when he gave up teaching to become the freelance composer/performer he has been ever since, with works for symphony orchestras, choral groups, chamber ensembles, voice, movies and television. Among his ongoing projects is a weekly, syndicated radio program, Schickele Mix. Peter Schickele is currently touring with his close acquaintance Prof. Schickele in two new programs featuring P.D.Q. Bach.
