Not Rachmaninov. Remember the connection is the works, they have something in common.

Piano Concerto No 4
Nocturne in C sharp minor - Chopin
String Quartet in F
Second Piano Sonata
Symphony No 92 - Joseph Haydn

Ok, a clue.

Think of Jos Haydn's Symphony No 92 as NOT the 'Oxford'

I did wonder about that. Wasn't No.92 actually written for Paris? Is there a French Connection?!

It was previously called "Letter Q" apparently, in an earlier cataloguing.

Don't know where that leads us.

Pity - that Ravel looked good, Tommo.

Beethoven's Piano Concerto No.4?

Hang on, I'm wide awake now, I said keep going - but forgot to add that the Ravel was correct  Roll Eyes so we have

Piano Concerto No 4
Nocturne in C sharp minor - Chopin
String Quartet in F - Ravel
Second Piano Sonata
Symphony No 92 - Joseph Haydn


Now IGI, what did you say about the Symphony No 92?

The Ravel Q was apparently his final submission to the Prix de Rome and the Conservatoire de Paris.

Looks like IGI had it?

Well done with the Ravel tommo, but no Mozart or Liszt.

You'll need to extract that connection out of IGI  Smiley

Also Second Piano Sonata I think is named deliberately that, and not 2nd or No 2.....

Piano Concerto No 4
Nocturne in C sharp minor - Chopin
String Quartet in F - Ravel
Second Piano Sonata
Symphony No 92 - Joseph Haydn

tommo,

On thinking, you more or less have the link, Paris IS the link but not the Conservatoire which the Symphony No 92 pre-dates, though only just I think.

Just nipping in before lunch break is over....is it that they were all written for Paris? In which case, is the Piano Concerto Saint-Saëns'?

And perhaps Boulez for the sonata?

OK IGI I'll give you the connection, which is that the works were all composed IN Paris (according to my researches anyway).

and martle is right with the Boulez.

and checking out Saint-Saens I might have to give that one to IGI, looks like Saint-Saens wrote his Piano Concerto No 4 in C minor in Paris in 1875, and he was married that year, BUT he seems to have toured Austria and Russia at that time, and the work is dedicated to Antoine Door, a professor of piano at the Vienna Conservatory. So I'm not entirely sure.....

the concerto I was thinking of is in B flat major

Piano Concerto No 4 -
Nocturne in C sharp minor - Chopin
String Quartet in F - Ravel
Second Piano Sonata - Boulez
Symphony No 92 - Joseph Haydn
