Name that piece! The game

[Gurn Blanston]

I'm back home. Don't give it away yet. I'm still working on it 

Sarge

No worries, Sarge. I know you are The King! 

[Scarpia]

No worries, Sarge. I know you are The King! 

Another of your subtle clues!  It's from The Lion King.   0:)

[Gurn Blanston]

No, but I wish I had thought of that. It would have been a classic diversion indeed! 

[karlhenning]

If that had been from The Lion King, my estimation of Disney would uptick sharply ; )

[Sergeant Rock]

I have actually thrown a couple of clews out there for y'all. They were subtle, but hey, that's just me.   

"I was sure that Sarge would get it though."


"At least I didn't pick a composer that no one has ever heard of before...     0:) "

"Neal, you're breakin' my heart. You don't think I would let you down, do you?  "

"Well, you're making some progress. please don't give up, I want you here for the surprise ending. "


Subtle indeed. Time to call in Adrian Monk

The spacing of those smileys...it's...well....it's not right.

Don't forget this one, Sarge

Well, I want to give everyone a chance at it before puking out the answer, so maybe a broader clue would be in order.

For all of you who know me,
the answer must be one of three.

For those of you who know me well
this hero sent a man to hell.

[karlhenning]

The MSPCA wish it known that they do not condone the practice of plucking puppies. Carry on.

Thanks Karl

I am guessing Hans Werner Henze: Die Weisse Rose....?

[Gurn Blanston]

Those are wonderful guesses all, but so sadly wrong. I will come back in 40 minutes and post the answer if it hasn't been guessed already. I am prepared for incredulity.

[Gurn Blanston]

OK, well I am so sad to see it has come to this.

Watch it and weep. It is a cantata, BTW, the original K1 # was 429, but now it is K 468a.

Now playing:
Sigiswald Kuijken (Violin)\ Luc Devos (Fortepiano) - K 481 Sonata in Eb for Clavier & Violin 1st mvmt - Molto allegro

[karlhenning]

I reckoned you were counting on inspiring incredulity.  I'd be stunned if it's something in my own library, though I rather suspect not.

[Mn Dave]

Never heard of him.

[Gurn Blanston]

Oh contraire, tres cher ami. I actually sent this to you in a little Mozart sampler about 4 years ago. I wanted you to hear how radical the lad could get.      You were the one person I was afraid would get it since I knew you had it.

Not your favorite, I know. You would have preferred Karl was right and it was Lucchesi!

Now playing:
Sigiswald Kuijken (Violin)\ Luc Devos (Fortepiano) - K 481 Sonata in Eb for Clavier & Violin 2nd mvmt - Adagio

[Mn Dave]

I have tons of Mozart, dude. Well, lots.

But . . . it does not match the music which is available as K429 at IMSLP . . . .

[Mn Dave]

Are you sure that's by Mozart? I think someone's pulling a fast one on you, Gurn. Or they've slowed down the recording. 

[Gurn Blanston]

I have tons of Mozart, dude. Well, lots.

I was merely matching your 'never heard of him'.
