Stuart Hamm Dr. Gradus ad Parnassum Radio Free Albemuth Written by Claude Debussy...yeah, that Debussy. The one you thought only your grandparents remembered (if that). "Doctor Gradus ad Parnassum" was written as a satirical piano composition, mocking his contemporary Muzio Clementi's collection of instructional piano lessons for children, which were apparently rather condescending and ultimately not very useful (Funny #1). "Gradus" has been issued on innumerable modern music collections for children (funny #2), and has been revisited by genius pianist Sergei Rachmaninov (also funny) and, of course, Stu Hamm, master of the electric bass (funny #4, unless I miss my count). Game, set, match: Debussy wins.
