The opening of Act One Scene Five. Why do I never get here in time for the ones I know?

[Mark G. Simon]

Greg, is your no. 29 Sea Drift by Delius?

[greg]

Greg, is your no. 29 Sea Drift by Delius?

very close! Right composer....... i'll give you a clue. This work is on the same CD as Sea Drift, for a certain recording. (i've never heard either piece, btw)

[lukeottevanger]

I feel a bit guilty jumping in like this, then, but I have a feeling - based on what appears to be the main motive, the baritone solo and so on - that the piece might be Delius's Appalachia

Whether it is or not - here's a Greg-like clue to one of mine: My recording of Appalachia (as you can tell, not listened to for a while) is coupled with Summer Night on the River and one other work, one of Delius's finest, and the Delius score of mine which hasn't been identified beyond the composer yet.

ha, no! 
try again

[greg]

(not doing anything to dispel the "myth" that all of Delius' music sounds the same)

[lukeottevanger]

I'm becoming a little doubtful that it is Appalachia because, scanning through the CD quickly, the baritone soloists doesn't seem to appear anywhere around where page 36 would probably be..mind you, this is Delius, the whole thing is blurring before my very ears....anyway, at least I had remembered the main motive correctly!

edit - see, I was right 

Hmm, well, I could guess at other Delius pieces, but that wouldn't be playing fair, and anyway I have to go out now
