OK, I'll try Danzi's Flute Concerto in G, as he composed a few. Telemann for the 'other' prolific composer of flute concertos in G?
Good call, George....  What might link the Mendelssohn Octet to Antheil's 1st Piano Concerto? Both written quite young (16 for Felix, 22 for George), although the Antheil had to wait until 2001 for its first performance. I can't see opus numbers for Antheil's catalogue of works, so perhaps we're not seeking op.20s. Anyone else got any ideas?! |

It's OK Anna, I did say you'd be 'able to help' but that didn't mean asking you  |

I wonder if we might be missing a key word, as Tchaikovsky's Capriccio italien and Rimsky-Korsakov's Capriccio espagnol exist in piano duet versions?

No missing word, and not Tchaikovsky or Rimsky-Korsakov, but correct nationality.....

Quantz might fit the bill; I was thinking of someone with a similar career/same employer

C. P. E. Bach or Franz Benda who were both employed, as was Quantz, by Frederick II of Prussia?

Excellent IGI! I had CPE Bach pencilled for that. Capriccio for piano duet - Glinka Flute Concerto in G major - CPE Bach Piano Concerto No 1 - Antheil Octet in E flat major - Mendelssohn As you guessed, or at least mentioned regarding Glinka, all composed in Berlin, well I expect the young Mendelssohn would have lived there at that age before he went to study at the University of Berlin. Amazingly he wrote the Octet BEFORE he went to uni  Cheers, John W |

Yes, Mendelssohn composed some outstanding pieces in his teenage years - the string symphonies, the octet, a lovely little clarinet sonata and the Overture to A Midsummer Night's Dream. What was also incredible was the way he then composed the rest of the incidental music many years later, yet retained the same magic.

It’s the weekend and I’ve got a new connection which I think should keep you amused/entertained for a while. (That’s probably put the kiss of death on it and you’ll spot it in ten minutes!) Connect these four composers:
Glière
Prokofiev
Sullivan
Shostakovich
