Is 459 Joseph Rheinberger's Piano Concerto in A flat Major, Op. 94? Sorry no not Rheinberger and indeed having climbed half-way up the mountain in Liechtenstein his birthplace we can assure the Member that it is nowhere near Russia: A clue to puzzle 459, which by lodging in the mind has exasperated so many members: its composer although one would not think it from the music was Russian. |

Clue to 464: this puzzle is not as difficult as it might at first appear; once Members perceive that the work might take the form of a set of orchestral variations on a theme of a second composer all that is then needed is a little good googling.
Clue to 465: the composer of this one lived for several years with Mozart with whom he frequently went around Vienna. Later he made a tremendous impression in Edinburgh. Later still he performed as percussionist in a performance of Wellington's Victory (the "Battle Symphony") conducted by Beethoven himself.

A clue for 461 then. Listen to it. There are three stringed instruments playing one-two-three, one-two-three to the oboe, who is in a different time signature. So it's chamber music. Standard repertoire, nothing obscure.

Sorry, Mr 1780! I had completely overlooked that message. It's so easy to do when there are so many. You're absolutely right, of course. Well done!

If by "Hummel 85" the Member means Hummel's Piano Concerto in A minor opus 85 then she is correct . . . Another Member confused the issue we think by talking about "A flat" when in fact we have heard performances of works from this period by different orchestras using tuning at least a semitone apart. Anyway although it is not the case here it is not unknown for inner sections of a work to modulate to very remote keys. |

Yes, that's the very one I meant  Puzzle 459 - Would it be Taneyev piano concerto in E flat major ? |
