have fun!  ;)

g14 is the Scene at the Brook from L'histoire du soldat

Larry Rinkel

G13 is one of those middle-period Webern things for voice and clarinets, probably op. 15 IIRC.

G14 is from Stravinsky's L'Histoire du Soldat.

Some others look familiar but I'll have to think harder.

Don't reveal your answers too soon - make us sweat!

karlhenning

g13 is the first of the Five Canons of Webern's Opus 16

greg

Is there actually a Scene at the Brook from Histoire? I can't remember! :D (I think it's one of my least favorite Stravinsky works.)

G12 looks like it's from near the ending of Carter's Concerto for Orchestra, though I'm not home now to check.

G16 with its looney Ferneyhough-like rhythms could be from Lemma-Icon-Epigram.

Scene ii, the soldier plays his fiddle by the brook.

Darnation - turned up too late. I'd have got the Webern and Strav....

On my dial-up these are taking ages to load, so for now....

Is 11 Cage?

I'm going to guess at Rihm for no 15

16 is Lemma-Icon-Epigram (Ferneyhough) - can tell just by those familiar first tuplets as they appear on the screen (my much cherished first-ever 'New COmplexity' score, bought in Prague)

**** this dial-up = Larry's guessed the Ferneyhough too!! ;D

lukeottevanger

The problem seems to be Greg's you tube signature slowing the page down from loading! Spare a thought for those of us in the dark ages, Greg!

lukeottevanger

A shot in the dark on no 15 - Rihm - Ungemaltes Bild

Can't say I didn't try.

Why the hell are you still on Dial up? Do some parts of Cambridge have the technology of rural Mongolia?

karlhenning

We're talkin' The Strip in Ulan Bator.

I'm not in Cambridge anymore, Toto.

However, even in rural Norfolk we do have broadband. Just not in my house for some reason

Anyone up for more?

no 35 - an easy one, methinks

Why would pianists want to play something that looks that awful?

Manuel.2

lukeottevanger

No 36 - ditto

no 37 - not exactly a composition, this

More in a few minutes....

m_gigena

LO35 is Britten, the closing part to Nocturnal Op.70.

Michel

Is Camrbidge in Norfolk? i thought it was was. I couldn't actually remember if you lived in Norfolk or East Anglia, so I went with Cambridge : /
