List of compositions by P. D. Q. Bach explained

The following is a list of works by P. D. Q. Bach, a fictitious Bach family member, the alter ego of composer Peter Schickele. The first section lists, in alphabetical order, those works which have been recorded, are listed in the annotated catalogue of P. D. Q. Bach music in The Definitive Biography of P.D.Q. Bach, and/or are listed on the Theodore Presser website. "Schickele numbers", or "S." numbers, associated with most of the compositions, have been assigned arbitrarily (with humorous intent) and are not intended to provide the same service as Bach-Werke-Verzeichnis (BWV) numbers, also known, especially in early compilations, as "Schmieder numbers" or "S. numbers" after compiler Wolfgang Schmieder. The second section lists "undiscovered works" that are mentioned in The Definitive Biography. The third section lists works by Schickele that have appeared on P. D. Q. Bach recordings. The fourth section lists a few selections, not by P.D Q. Bach/Schickele, that have appeared on P. D. Q. Bach recordings.
