Of course, the master of ridicule, the master of irony was the brilliant composer Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. The most diverse facets of humor from mild irony (in the playful Frisky aria - video # 1 from 45:00) to real sarcasm in the duet of Suzanne and Marcelina, in which they openly scandal, bringing each other to white heat (No. 1 from 22 : 00).

Among the Russian composers was also an outstanding master of sarcasm, Alexander Sergeyevich Dargomyzhsky - the younger contemporary of Mikhail Ivanovich Glinka and one of the founders of the Russian national school. Probably even Mozart would envy the skill of Dargomyzhsky’s sarcasm. The difficult fate of the composer-innovator led to the fact that he often resorted to irony, including evil irony. But what role does expressive intonation play in transmitting sarcasm, which the great and mighty Russian language is so rich in. Dargomyzhsky enriched the musical language with speech intonations, both in his romances and in operas. A visual aid to this is “The Stone Guest” based on “The Little Tragedy” by Alexander Sergeyevich Pushkin. The opera is written on the poet's unchanged text, and expressive speech turns are complemented by musical intonation.
Sarcasm has been in the opera since the appearance of the main characters Don Juan and Leporello, especially in the replicas of the latter.
Sarcasm is an integral part of language and worldview. Probably, if this phenomenon were not, life would be a little boring.
