Since we seem to have members in almost all 24 time zones, I think my suggestion that allowing 36 hours for resonses bears repeating.   That allows some catch-up time for those who can't access the board every day, and gives regular puzzle setters some breathing time.
(Not a complaint, I'm retired with lots of  potential free time .)

Good idea Listener. I'm in the US, and have often missed rounds that took place while I was asleep (or as close as I ever get to sleep)  :D

Probably it is obvious for some of you.

I want to please all you who just do know it to let shot them who can't recognize it.

But of course if you want you can remark your knowledge.

I'm against. I prefer to lose some opportunity than wait. So why not wait 36 hours after each hint? I prefer to participate in only three games of seven in three days than play in both games in the same time.

Sounds a lot like Tchaikovsky to me, then at the end of the clip I thought of someone like Goldmark

Neither Tchaikovsky nor Goldmark. But of course these are good shots. First name was one of these I expected. And this is in no way coincidence that Tchaikovsky is one to be expected I suppose.

I know to little about Goldmark to say something interesting.

are we looking for one of, maybe, nine symphonies, or five composers?

No answer to this yet, as it would remove 50 percent of orchestral music.

No, as far as I understand your question.

Well, this is composer of symphonies. As far as I know he create another important form of orchestral music.

What you exactly mean by "central'?

But it is good word "central'. I would use it to our composer with great satisfaction. But I'm afraid it would be only confuse you.

Hmm, Paul Hindemith appears to have written the first concerto for orchestra. Is this one of his early works?

Saint-Saëns, who wrote the first film score (for L'assassinat du Duc de Guise)  ?

No.

Our clip is from a symphony. This symphony was a really great succes. I suppose it could be regarded as a very important work in the history of the genre as it was a really important trendsetter.

Could be but in fact it is not so popular as it should be.

Franz Liszt, the inventor of the symphonic poem?

Good shot. But not him

Antonín Dvořák ?

This is another shot I was expected. When I listen to our composer music I thought very often: oh it sounds like x or it sounds like y.

As x and y acts almost all popular composers who lived in an era of The Mystery One. Tchaikovsky and Dvorak belong to most frequent x-es.

The funny thing about The Mystery Composer is that though x is often somone older than The Mystery One, even more often it is someone younger.

I suppose it could be Joachim Raff, though I have no idea what type of symphonic music he might have invented. The sound-world is a pretty good match and there are plenty of symphonies there.

Any other composers from the time of Dvorak or Tchaikovsky whose symphonies might be 'a really important trendsetter' I simply don't know. Unless...

EDIT: No, it is not Glinka
