Well!!! My ghast is well and truly A-FLABBER! So there's more to you than chucking up oranges at Euston after all?! I think you must have earned at least 75 points with that piece of enlightenment Anna.
Baz xxxxxxxx
Dear Baz, I have never "chucked up" at Euston or any main line station. I provided some brillant street theatre involving dextrous manipulation of oranges whilst dressed as a Nun 
P.S. Have you tried tossing your three oranges to the strains of Prokofiev yet Anna? xxxxxxxxxxx
Dear Baz, if you had ever come to the right place at the right time you would have seen my brilliant routine to The Love of Three oranges combined with The Miraculous Mandarin which was rounded off with a Piazzolla Tango! Sometimes I liked to use the theme from Harry Lime, which added a certain piquancy! Well you should mind your step, or you'll soon be juggling to the Cockney song 'Apples and pears'. |

Don't think anyone has had a go at my Puzzle 50So, a clue, composed in the 21st century - well, as far as I know, it could have been in his head, in his PC or on a sheet of paper for decades but it was published with a title in about 2005 |

I have tried to have a go at your Puzzle John several times but like your Sounds Familiar it opens in Quicktime - so all I get is silence  |

(No - hang on a minute! - I got something there that sounded more like John Williams/ET than John Cage!  ) Baz |

(Come to think of it, that should have ruled out martle's Sequenza too ...) |

The city is a process which always veers away from the form envisaged and desired, ... whose revenge upon its architects and planners undoes every dream of mastery. It is [also] one of the sites where Dasein is assigned the impossible task of putting right what can never be put right. - Rob Lapsley

Thanks very much Bryn - that's worked a treat!  Baz The filename shown as an example relates to a little file containing the last 16 minutes or so of Rzewski's "The People United Will Never Be Defeated" variations, by the way, (as given at the 1983 Almeida Festival). |

Yours, in anticipation of much needed points (Although I think Mr. Grew has not posted a League Table lately) |

Hmm. I wonder whether Anty's guess at John's latest snatch (Patrick Doyle, Harry Potter music) will, if correct, nonetheless fall foul of Mr Grew's 'definition' number 1 for generic as well as chronological reasons: 1) the "classical repertoire" here means music written between 1500 and 2000, and normally performed in concert halls or churches; "jazz" and "pops" are specifically excluded. (We would like to exclude "American music" in general but have decided that that might be thought intolerant by some. We rely then for a balanced mix upon the sense of Members setting.) Of course, CFM play film scores all the time. And 'classical' composers wrote plenty of them. So, an interesting test case... |
