Here is Puzzle 339.

Some clues for 339...

Often performed as a concert piece, it is actually the opening of a dramatic work. It was written in 1928-9, though the composer revised the whole work into a "new version" in 1953-4.

Could 339 be Prokofiev's 4th Symphony, written using themes from his ballet The Prodigal Son?

I'm afraid not Mr Inquisitor - and the composer is of a different nationality.

Sorry, Anty, no Skempton in my current offerings. Try the other side of the Pond. It's a sort of job-seeker's piece.

[By the way, your stab at Howard Skempton as the composer might possibly be related to the fact that the piece was in fact originally for accordion, but was later rewritten in the form heard in the clip.]

Puzzle 335 has been overlooked, despite a connection to two puzzles which were solved and what I suspect was a very close guess by Baz.

I think it probably is one of Haydn's numerous Deutsche Tänze?  But in D major, not G.  That's as much as I can narrow it down on a morning when I should be doing some calming warm-up exercises...

(Seeing as this wasn't off-topic, may I have all my lovely negative points back now please?)

A little clue re. Puzzle 345, the section from 5 to 8 seconds in, should be a dead give-away.

Now a clue relating to Puzzle 342: the decidedly 'English' (though not by birth or parentage) composer of this clip, moved in the same circles as Walton and Warlock.

Sorry no that is not it. The time has come it appears for a clue that will make it easy for baffled members: HERE and HERE is a clue to puzzle 335 in the form of a second much better-known extract from the same work.

No.346 is I believe from Scriabin's Tenth Sonata for piano.

Which would make it Beethoven's Creatures of Prometheus, no?
