Is 349 Messiaen's Theme and Variations for Violin and Piano?

With slight trepidation, I will take a wobbly aim at 349: Xenakis, Dikhthas?

Without further ado I present
Puzzle 348 and
Puzzle 349.

Unless we are mistaken - a circumstance by no means beyond the bounds of imagination - this message is off the topic, in that the member already has two open puzzles. (We thank a member in the other place for drawing this to our attention.) The next number available to be assigned to new puzzles is therefore 348.

An interesting issue arises thus, does not it? At least two members have essayed solutions to puzzles 348 and 349, ourselves included; will the correctitude or otherwise of their stabs be rewarded or penalised According To The Rules? Or shall the entire affair be written off as a circumstantial aberration, we wonder.

CLUETIME!

Here is Puzzle 332 in SS and RS

This composer has already been identified correctly 5 times.  It's title is not be be confused with an opera by a composer who has been correctly identified 4 times.


Here is Puzzle 343 in SS and RS

There has been one snatch already identified by this composer, and two snatches whose titles include this title.

Since Member Grew seems to have temporarily disappeared, I revise my earlier post thus.

This is now
Puzzle 348.
which was previously called Puzzle 349. It's the piece for violin and piano in other words.

I shall however have to disappoint Messrs Iron and Martle in so far as it is neither by Messiaen nor Xenakis, but by a composer who has as far as I know never lived in France.

Ah, no, not Fauré but Reynaldo Hahn. Sorry.

HERE and HERE is puzzle 351. We should warn members that it comes from one of those modernistical pieces so inexplicably popular in a certain camp which lack form balance structure rhythm melody counterpoint and a sense of harmony.

That is incorrect.

Ah, no, not Fauré but Reynaldo Hahn. Sorry.

But that is entirely right!

Mr 1780, I believe that Puzzle 332 is Rachmaninov's The Isle of the Dead, not to be confused with Janacek's House of the DeadCheesy

A guess at No.343 now - could it be Dvorak's Silent Woods?

A further clue to No.321 (SendSpace or Rapidshare): The composer of this wacky sounding piece was organist at the Parisian churches of Saint-Roch (1841-1846), the Église de la Madeleine (1846-1858), and Saint-Sulpice (1863-1869).

A further clue to No.320 (SendSpace or Rapidshare): It's a very early English work for five instruments by a composer who enjoyed walking holidays!
