Quiz: Mystery scores

[Luke]

You need to use the main transliteration used on Wiki.de as far as I remember. Rappy can confirm or deny this! 

[rappy]

Confirmed!

And if you don't fear the German language, here are some hints: http://www.clavio.de/forum/sonstiges/11142-musikquiz.html (summary: http://www.clavio.de/forum/184883-post210.html )

[rappy]

If one finishes my game, he can create his own quiz.

Dimo from clavio.de is the first one! You can find the link to his quiz on the highscores-page: http://www.dgsp-rheinland-pfalz.de/musikspiel/highscore.php

It begins pretty easy, but I am already stuck at #20. 

[Luke]

Hey, why isn't my name on your high scores list?  thought I was the first one to complete it in its first incarnation, though granted I haven't had a go recently...

I'm on no 39, so I ought to be 4th, which isn't too bad considering...

[Luke]

Quickly got to number 11 on the other one, and that one is very clear, but he has the identification number wrong, surely

[Luke]

Got it. It was that dratted German spelling rule....

I got to 8 on Dimo's quiz. AT FIRST I THOUGHT the composer of 9 is unmistakable, but I can't recall the work (unless I page through 6 volumes of piano music). 

[Luke]

No 16 took a little work, just because....well, you'll see, but you will get it, I know, based on one or two of your scores on this thread. I stopped at 19, which is quite tricky and as far as Rappy and anyone else has got. On Rappy's, I've got to 39 (i.e. done 38), but I haven't looked at it for a while, so maybe I will have a go soon. The problem is, when you stop, you are given a link so that you don't have to go right back to the beginning again, but you still have to go through a few, which is a bit annoying. I ought to write down the answers (and the transliterations!) somewhere so I can go through the process more quickly next time.

There was a highscore reset when I finished the quiz, and then you didn't enter your name again!
You'll get a new link with passing #40 - which should be easy for you, because one of the following you will surely know if you passed until #19 in Dimos quiz. And the other one I'm also sure you'll recognize - it's very up to date at GMG!

I had problems with #9 of Dimos quiz too. The composer wasn't too obvious for me. 19 is really tricky, I have no clue yet!

Sorry for the odd spelling rules. In my version, you can use a or ae for ä, in Dimos not yet... so ä=ae, ö=oe, ü=ue.

Nice to see you in the highscore again, Luke!

I must have been wrong. I thought Dimo 9 was a composer who had been used twice already. But maybe not. So much for my claiming he was unmistakable! 

[rappy]

I thought of that one first, too, Sfz. But when I found out that it isn't one of the ones you think of first when you see such a score, there weren't too many possibilities left - for Romantic piano music.

[Luke]

Oh, I know which one you mean now!

As for you, young Mr Rappy. I got your 39     that's some intense rhythmic dislocation you were doing there! I call foul! Interesting that it's the same as...no, I won't give the game away.

[Luke]

And after that, 40, 41 and 42 were easy! (lucky I know 41 well, as it's quite obscure). And now I know your rhythmic tricks, 42 was simple!

[rappy]

#41 is a beautiful piece, isn't it?

On #43, the mistakes are not so much rhythmical or wrong note spelling...

You'll recognize #45 within half a second! 

[Luke]

#41 is a beautiful piece, isn't it?

Yes, a lovely one

On #43, the mistakes are not so much rhythmical or wrong note spelling...

Well, I'm going to have to go now, unfortunately, I have work to do for tomorrow and it's not even tomorrow now, it's today! this and other things have been distracting me this evening! So I won't get another shot at your quiz, or the other one, for a couple of nights

[rappy]

Oh, I'm sorry Luke, that wasn't my purpose!

It's today, yeah - time to sleep. Good night then (hope you at least got time for sleeping)!

[(poco) Sforzando]

I thought of that one first, too, Sfz. But when I found out that it isn't one of the ones you think of first when you see such a score, there weren't too many possibilities left - for Romantic piano music.

Ah. Well, at least great minds think alike!

Finally finished: http://www.dgsp-rheinland-pfalz.de/musikspiel/highscore2.php

Hint: #20 is a female composer and it's a toccata. #9 is from a composer who must have been cold quite often.

Hints for mine (remember, if you finish it, you can create your own  ): http://www.dgsp-rheinland-pfalz.de/musikspiel/

#43: The key signature is correct. A dark and loud opening, while the end is even louder, with piccolo bursting your ears.

#25: A lovely piece, but the composer didn't regard it highly. Chamber music.

Gaston finished my quiz, so here's his new one:

The only challenge so far is how to enter a Hoboken number in a format the ***%$$!! quiz will recognize!
