FRANK ZAPPA Original handwritten bassoon score for *Variant 1 Processional March* (1972), a composition later known as *Regyptian Strut*, from the collection of Marty Perellis, Frank Zappa’s former tour manager. Two pages of handwritten musical notation attributed to Frank Zappa (1940–1993), corresponding to the bassoon part of his composition “Variant 1 Processional March,” written in 1972 for his orchestral ensemble The Grand Wazoo. Written in black ink on music paper, the two pages present the bassoon part, accompanied by performance instructions, dynamics, and repeats, including the notations “Very Dry,” “Fanfare,” and “Fine.” They attest to Zappa’s orchestration work and his attention to the individual parts for each instrument. According to the accompanying documentation, the manuscript comes from the collection of Marty Perellis, Frank Zappa’s tour manager in the early 1970s. It is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity from Recordmecca, signed in 2011 by Jeffrey Gold, stating that the musical notation was authenticated by David Ocker, a music copyist who worked with Zappa from 1977 to 1984. Dimensions: 48.3 x 31 x 8 cm. Provenance: Marty Perellis, Frank Zappa’s tour manager, according to the Recordmecca certificate 2011, private collection
