And let us not forget these timeless works of PDQ Bach:

The oratorio /The Seasonings

/The opera /Einstein On The Fritz/

The cantata /Gott sei dank, daß heute Freitag ist/

The /Pervertimento for Bicycle, Bagpipes, and Balloons
/
Not to mention "the /Toot Suite/, the /Grossest Fugue/, a /Fanfare for
the Common Cold/, and the canine cantata /Wachet Arf!"

/(Thanks to the Wikipedia page on PDQB!)

Best,
