Don't know what it is, but this score actually looks like it sounds good.  :o ;D

Maciek

Heh, heh. But it actually lost to a Bartok quartet in a competition once. Not that there's anything unfair or surprising in a Bartok quartet winning a competition... But Casella? Come on! >:D

Maciek

(Well, I guess I've sort of given it away now, haven't I?)

Maciek

No? Well, OK. How about this one then?

Aw, come on, you've got the text right there. How much more of a clue do I have to give? ;D

Google seems to be telling me that there are only 2 string quartet with a Con Vivezza marking: Holmboe No. 9 mvmt II and Bacewicz No. 7 mvmt III. I've been able to sample the Holmboe and find a description of the Bacewicz.

I'd go for the latter because the score seems closer to the description than the samples and because she's Polish in a page where's there's lots of Polish stuff going on :D.

edit:
MM106: Bacewicz - Sonata for Piano No. 2?
Recorded at Warsaw, May 28, 1977, live and he seems to have been playing it in recitals not too long ago, so he might have recorded it earlier this year too.

Well, first of all, let me welcome you to the best thread on GMG (tm)! 8) And congratulate you, since choosing to partake in our quiz is an indication of impeccable taste and intelligence of the highest order. :D

Secondly: thank you for reviving the thread. Luke, who sort of looked after it, is not around at the moment. He might return, though. But there's no reason to abandon the quiz while he's gone...

And thirdly: you're correct on both counts! Well done! Impressive entrance!

thanks! This seems like a very interesting thread to me, this last page alone introduced me to two composers I knew nothing about: Ms. Bacewicz (MM116 is her 5th string quartet?) and Mr. Szymanowski (MM113 is the String Quartet No. 2 OP. 56, found it with the help of the bartok/casella hint :)).

But anyway, this thread's no fun if no one's posting anything new, right? So here's a few of my own.

Hello guys. I've snuck back in quietly. It's been one hell of an awful few months, and I'm far from out of the woods yet - but I had a sudden urge to reregister here, so that can't be a bad sign.

But I don't think I'm up to be being very active yet. Maybe just my two or three favourite threads!

So, I must say it's been bugging me that none of you lot got these last ones -

1) not sure what the cello one is yet...
2) Alkan Concerto for Solo Piano...
3) Some Haydn Piano Sonata or other, would need to look it up...
4) Liszt, B minor Sonata
5) Beethoven, Emperor Concerto (piano part only)

This is all very weird...be gentle with me!
