Overview

The novel is a humorous musical farce and Pythonesque romp among the most famous composers of modern western classical music confronting the difficulties of converting musical notes into bank notes, recast as leading bar bands and performing on instruments which have no counterparts in our current musical world while composing and performing for well-known commercial producers of films and cartoons.

DeAnnuntis' debut novel, Master Siger's Dream, put me in mind of the John Kennedy Toole masterpiece A Confederacy of Dunces. . . such a wonderful character that we can't help hoping Siger figures out a way to circumvent his fate, (and) that somehow he finds his way to a better outcome."" -MOSTLYFICTION REVIEWS
