Giovanni Detorri - Fugue on a theme by Lady Gaga.

Performing this piece might be a good idea to bring classical piano music to young  people.
It is well written and I do like it.
What's your opinion?

Very appealing ! And, most of all, very well crafted indeed, very funny.  It could indeed have some potential in "bringing classical music to kids".   I also think that there is already in standard classical repertoire lots of stuff that is not too hard for children's ears, not to mention the "Peter and the Wolf"-type of music, or even Mozart "Die Zaüberflöte", and lots of humorous and creepy things etcetera, etcetera, if it is brought with enthusiasm, children are very sensitive.  I also think that "not liking classical music"-as-a-kid, is often more of an 'attitude'. 

I also like the lenght of this piece ; it is not what I would call short.   It stands on itself.  I would like to find the score, play it and than not share it with the two girls here (or I would share it, in exchange of washing some dishes or something  ).   I'm probably a lot a kid myself.

I do not like the process the other way round, Mozart A La Mode from Alec Templeton, turning classical 'tunes' in some jazzy stuff etcetera.

This is fantastic, a real discovery, a jewel.  These guys have talent. 

Kind greetings.

I like it very much! I like it because it blends in classical music with pop culture. I agree with alessandro that it has the potential to bring classical music to kids.

Passing fade.  Someone did that for a Britanny Spears song too... Who cares about it now?  Someone will do it again with the next pop singer.  It must give music students/profs something amusing to do.

Brilliant. To be honest, I have never heard the theme it was based on. I am so out of the loop.
