I'd say by intertextuality. You know all this talk about art as a discourse,
it's pretty common (even more so in classical music) to refer to others'
work in a piece of music. Often this is done humorously, though I'm not sure
if it still could be called a pun. Obviously the references are misse by the
majority of listeners, but not by all.
