Banquet Fugue

Beginning with the lyric, "Guzzle, guzzle, guzzle, munch, munch, gobble, gobble, chomp, pass the salt and pepper...," you can immediately see the possibilities for a delightful, tongue-in-cheek fugue! Recorded by The King's Singers on the sound track recording of John Rutter's operetta "The Reluctant Dragon," this is a most enjoyable selection which ends, unfortunately, as do many good banquets-with an audible expression of contentment.
