I was recently reminded of a song I
heard in my younger days. It's fun, it's clever and so very unusual. I think you will get a chuckle from listening to the YouTube performances I've found. It is called The Typewriter by Leroy Anderson because the star of the piece is, yes, a typewriter! Being an author, I can appreciate the creativity of the composer all the more. Thank you to YouTube for making this available for us to share.
The first version is by silly comic Jerry Lewis: Jerry Lewis and The Typewriter Song
The second is in front of a full orchestra played with no mistakes! : Viennese Percussionist Martin Breinschmid with his version of the "Typewriter" Live at the BASF concert hall Ludwigshafen,Germany 2008,Strauß Festival Orchestra Vienna
