... but if it's in a work by Mozart, there's always "Don Giovanni! A cenar teco m'invitasti... "

Don Giovanni is indeed one of the three works you're looking for; the statue of the Commendatore accepts an invitation to dinner.

I think it can be called a dinner for the purposes of the present question.
(You may have to enter 'Nixon in China dinner scene' in the search box)
Two down, one to go!

Would the John Adams be connected to the film where his music is played at a dinner? I am in Love?

Sorry, Anna, we've established that it's the Dinner Scene from John Adams's 'Nixon in China'.
(We'll be watching the Scarlets tonight, by the way)

Originally posted by Flay View PostI thought it was a given that it was the Berkeley Opera - A Dinner Engagement
Mercs #26260
To summarize:
Three works featuring a dinner: Lennox Berkeley's 'A Dinner Engagement', John Adams's 'Nixon in China' and Mozart's 'Don Giovanni'.
As mercs was the first to mention Dinner, and identified the Lennox Berkeley, I think he gets to set the next question, yes?

When I first looked, late on, this afternoon, my first thought was Dog's Dinner, and whether I had overdone the Oxford comma, then I worried about posting that answer because a) I had the apostrophe in the wrong place, and were it singular or plural dogs and b) was it a reference to Frank Zappa and Evelyn the Modified Dog? In the case of the latter (hereintobefore referred to as b) but now classified as weird stuff) no-one else but me would have heard of it!!So, there you are then.
