MacPhail's answer to the latest chicken riddle

This morning MacPhail posted their own answer to last week's riddle, "What instruments will they play in the chicken rubber band?"

Answer: "Anything that can be PLUCKED!"

I'm trying to think of a riddle to ask back, something like "What music will they play in the chicken rubber band?" Can anyone think of composers names with a sort of chicken twist on them??? (sounds like "fowl" or "gizzard" or "comb" or "beak" or . . .)

The Dixie Chicks? (Only one to pop into my head)

Will they play any Don Henley or Henry Rollins? How about Bruce Cockburn?

Well, you could try finding a cello piece that was played by Roostropovich (sic)...Or maybe get a pianist to play Mozart's "Turkish Rondo" (okay, that last one was a stretch)...

There's gotta be a "fowl play" joke in there somewhere.

Okay, also "Turkey in the Straw". And put up sheet music to the Chicken Dance, so they have to work for it a bit (I like the idea of the chickeneers singing to each other and trying to piece out the melody).

I don't know how you'd work this, but I'm seeing something about playing a rubber chicken like a bagpipe.
