- The_Stoned_Guest abstract "This musical work, while touted as \"P. D. Q. Bach's Half-Act Opera: The Stoned Guest,\" is actually the work of Peter Schickele. The title is a play on the \"stone guest\" character in Don Giovanni by Mozart, as well as the opera The Stone Guest by Alexander Sergeyevich Dargomïzhsky. The work is a parody of classical opera, although some critics consider it to be the equal of many classical works in technical ability. The opera appears on the 1970 album of the same name.The loose story combines elements of Don Giovanni with elements of Carmen by Georges Bizet. Some character names, such as \"Don Octave\" and \"Donna Ribalda\" play on the Mozart opera, referring to Don Ottavio and Donna Elvira respectively, while the castanet-clicking \"Carmen Ghia\" plays on the title character of Bizet's opera (and puns on the Volkswagen Karmann Ghia). The \"Commendatoreador\" plays on both operas at once, being a combination of \"Il Commendatore\" and the toreador Escamillo. The orchestral accompaniment for Donna Ribalda's opening aria, \"Let's face it—I'm lost\", bears more than a passing resemblance to the \"Rex tremendae majestatis\" from Mozart's Requiem.At one point in the opera, the rival divas Carmen Ghia and Donna Ribalda break character in the middle of a recitative, so the singers can hold a conversation (still in recitative) about their singing careers. At a subsequent point, they have a contest to see who can hold a note the longest. The final scenes of the opera parody first the stereotype (exemplified by Don Giovanni itself) of classical opera as having a tragic ending and then the stereotype of the Romantic narrative (as reflected in, e.g., Goethe's revision of the Faust legend) by revealing the tragic ending to have been a false ending and introducing deus ex machina to generate a happy conclusion not warranted by the earlier plot.".
