Not No.5, but thinking of that concerto's subtitle, you're getting closer.

Well I can't think of any more SS Egyptian-style piano stuff.

A clue for 201: it's from a 19th-century concertino.

Yes, Tony - Saint-Saëns' Africa, which is included on Stephen Hough's recording of the concertos, was completed in Cairo in 1891. The climax is based on a Tunisian folk-tune.

Phew, that was quite a race between Baz and me! When I first heard that clip, I tried to think of Russian composers. Saint Saens is a composer I've not taken a lot of interest in, although that Africa piece sounds very jolly.

A musically connected trio of works, which could lead to a hatful of points should you spot it quickly enough:

Puzzle 202 - SendSpace or Rapidshare

Puzzle 203 - SendSpace or Rapidshare

Puzzle 204 - SendSpace or Rapidshare
