372 - sounds like Rossini's Barber of Seville Overture. It can't be that easy, can it? There's a catch, surely?

Indeed there is. No, in this instance, the work concerned is not by Rossini. Wink

Here is Puzzle 373. Will anybody who participated in this, or any other performance of the work, in this, or an earlier version, please have the good grace to refrain from attempting a solution to the puzzle?

372: Thought so. Is it quoted in John Corigliano's Phantasmagoria (on "The Ghosts of Versailles")?

I am most interested to learn that. However, that is not the work from which this clip was taken.

Is 372 Rossini's Overture to Aureliano in Palmira? It's what he used again for the Barber of Seville.

No, sorry, not that either. Wrong century.

Well at least that means I am eligible to attempt a solution.  Smiley

Is it from Cardew: The Great Learning?

I am afraid that will not do, GG. I need not only the specific work from that collection, but the particular version. You see, it is not from a performance of any part of the published edition.

You're at it again, aren't you, Ollie. Just after the 20 point. No, that is not a prepared piano, nor a sonata or interlude, and neither is it by Cage.

That would be a no, I'm afraid, Mr Sudden.
