Well, P.D.Q. Bach wrote for Houndentenor!

And then there was that crazy guy, Kirk Nurock,
who wrote a Sonata for a Dog Soloist!

Sonata for Piano and Dog (1983)

Does this mean, that if I ever decide to write a
Basset Hound Concerto, that Columbo could be
a Co-Soloist, to come on stage, and drive every-
body crazy, by saying, "Just One More Thing",
every so often?

And where were you the night that they murdered
Bell Canto Style? . . . .
