Ginastera piano sonata no. 2 perhaps. The Member was going along very promisingly but collapsed at the final digit. |

As we had just concluded...
Ginastera piano sonata no. 1 then. Sounds rather like the Presto misterioso.

Ginastera piano sonata no. 1 then. Sounds rather like the Presto misterioso. Another fine win for Member Sudden! After his opera Bomarzo was banned in his native land because of its sex violence and dissonance Ginastera left the country for good and settled in Switzerland. This first sonata dates from 1952 and is said to be the first of his works to use serial methods. |

Hurrah!
He apparently preferred his name with the opening G pronounced like an English J - it would seem this is the Catalan pronunciation. Clarinettists dread the appearance of his Variaciones Concertantes (IV. Variazione in modo di Scherzo per clarinetto) on an audition programme. Except perhaps those who can play it. Of whom I am not one.
Emerson, Lake and Palmer made use of his first piano concerto. Apparently he approved.

At 1 minute and 5 seconds, IGI, you are slipping! But you are quite correct, and I am beginning to wonder why I even try..... Congratulations. Tommo (Katarina Karneus btw) |

Hurrah! I have to admit, Mr 1780, that it was a bit of an inspired guess - French language + delicate orchestration made me think of Berlioz and as it couldn't be an opera...
Have you heard Mr Bostridge singing these songs? (On a DG Concerts download...)

Some clues: Puzzles 379 and 380 are by composers of the same nationality, though the composer of Puzzle 380 had adopted a different country as his home by the time he composed the work extracted here. Both puzzles also date from the same decade, and are of considerably older vintage than the Joan Rivers Tower piece mentioned by Mr Fragment. |
