A book page shows an absurdly dense sheet of musical notation, supposedly representing an entire piano sonata crammed onto one page. The joke is that P. D. Q. Bach became so frugal that he saved paper, producing music too chaotic to decipher; it is a parody of scholarly biographies and experimental composition.
