Yes, hh, you've got the Tchaikovsky. It's not a colour connection, remember, there's no significance there. Here's another composer. Is the picture becoming clearer?!

Chopin
Johann Strauss II
Torke – Bright Blue Music
Sousa
Tchaikovsky – Serenade for Strings
Donizetti
Copland – The Red Pony
Elizabeth Poston
Rachmaninov
Harty

I'm blowed if I can see the connection.

Poston: Jesus Christ the Apple Tree
Rachmaninov: Isle of the Dead

Naaaaaaah. My brain. You hurts it.

Is the right answer, but none of the others mahlerei and hh suggested.

Chopin
Johann Strauss II/ Tippett
Torke – Bright Blue Music
Sousa
Tchaikovsky – Serenade for Strings
Donizetti
Copland – The Red Pony
Poston – Jesus Christ the Apple Tree
Rachmaninov
Harty
Dvorak

Perhaps the addition of Tippett may lead you to the correct Strauss...

Hang on, the only piece I can remember by Harty was called The Wild Geese, or something like that.  Any chance?

I wonder if he sets quizzes like these to his pupils?
