“Le Bœuf sur le toit” (literally “the ox on the roof”), Op. 58 is a short piece for small orchestra by the composer Darius Milhaud, written in 1919–20.
Milhaud conceived this piece as incidental music for any one of the comic silent films of Charlie Chaplin, but it received its premiere as the music for a ballet staged by Jean Cocteau in February 1920.
Listen to this fun-filled music, and enjoy it!
