Your list is more correct than mine. I cheated a little with the two Mahler Song Cycles.
I can't count to 13, so I can't participate. :'(

I accept the Mahler cycles. They are works in 5 movements. You pass.

Three Pieces for Two Pianos or the

Three pieces, but Iberia is made up of three movements.
So it doesn't count? :'(
Quote from: Larry Rinkel on June 20, 2007, 01:38:57 PM

As a matter of fact, yes. Yes, I am.
The minuets are generally considered one movement, especially in recordings. The Bärenreiter editors list them separately, but they seem to be off in left field in doing so.

Yes, the minuets are the problem. The Chrysander edition also considers them separate movements, for a total of six. Being the wonderfully nice guy that I am, I'll give you credit, but I would have preferred a less debatable example.

I certainly am not. My desk is positioned in the center of my study, with bookshelves at the left and right corners.

OK, so I had a different vision of your environs.
Will the next list be "You favorite work between 45 and 55 bars?" It'd be even more fun watching people count that one! ;D
