But so that Luke can get a taste of his own medicine...

Tell you what - it's pleasure! To be guessing someone else's scores and not having to write my own clues...!

Might not be able to look at these clues of yours till later

...having said that: sfz 15: Respighi, Brazillian Impressions?

(poco) Sforzando

lukeottevanger

I have ideas on 17 and 18 now.... but only on the composers, not the pieces yet.

lukeottevanger

Is it the Concerto pour sept instrument à vents (sorry, Johan, if it is)

That's it. And the work is ...?

Petite Symphonie concertante perhaps? (It's been a long time since I heard this)

I don't mind...

Yes indeed. The central "Butantan" movement depicting (IIRC) a snake farm he visited in Brazil.

The Frank Martin is correct too (Concerto, not Petite Symphonie). Damn, you guys are good.

Well, no 17 is Richard Hoffmann, and I think the orchestra piece might well be a piece called...Orchestra Piece (or Piece for Orchestra, depending what you read).

lukeottevanger

No 18 I'm somewhat less sure on, so I want to look a little more.

That's it! talk about writing a good clue. Did you actually know that, or was it the product of research?

Extremely good, but not as good as sfz24

Egk. Oh.

I have to stop for now....

Luke, is there one I might guess at? Which one's easy that hasn't been got yet?
