I. Orchestre Macabre

 Kitten on the Keys

  A cat had been taught to play the piano and this animal, sit-ting on a stool, played and played the whole existent piano repertory, and in addition five compositions of its own dedicated to several dogs.

  Otherwise, the cat was possessed of a perfect stupidity, and during concert intermissions he would compose new pieces with a drive that left everyone flabbergasted. In that way he reached opus eighty-nine, during which he was the victim of a brick thrown by someone with a tenacious rage. He sleeps his final sleep in the lobby of the Great Rex Theater, 640 Corrientes.
