Parody

Parody is a type of musical composition or performance that imitates or mockingly references an existing song or genre. It is often humorous in nature, and can be seen as a form of musical satire. The history of parody can be traced back to Ancient Greece and the plays of Aristophanes, who often used songs and melodies to parody popular plays and genres of the day. Parody has been used throughout history by composers and performers alike, and has remained a popular form of expression into the 21st century.
