So someone (a Julliard grad, Nico Muhly), wrote a song cycle using the ever-so-exquisite book The Elements of Style. Read about it here.

Gee, that’s a book I’ve not really read. I know exactly what it looks (or looked, anyway, since this was a while ago) like; we had it at our house (maybe Dan used it?) and I sold plenty of copies when I worked in a bookstore way-back-when.

It’s gotta be a good work; it includes banjo.
