Stuart, in desperation: a Sibelius melodrama, then? Or an excerpt from an incidental music score... (Pelléas, Swanwhite, The Tempest?)

I'll go for the melodrama version of The Wood Nymph, just for daredevil's sake....

Pardon my absent-mindedness for having posted this on the wrong thread altogether, regarding, er, Puzzle 25 I think it was:

Assuming it is a violin concerto at all, I see that the list doesn't contain

Barber
Coleridge-Taylor
Corigliano
Finzi
Glass
Glazunov
Joachim
Hubay
Korngold
Lalo
Nielsen
Patterson
Rozsa
Saint-Saens
Ysaye

all of whom wrote violin concertos I haven't heard (possibly one for New Musical Connections - oops - offtopic!). Some of them seem unlikely candidates but let these be my next 15 guesses.



No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.........NO!  Cheesy

Anty,

Sorry, No.  But I was actually thinking of posting that, so you were nearly premature in getting your 100 points.

Mr. Dough, it is a Sibelius melodrama, yes, but not the ones you mention! Another hint: it does not appear to be in the Bis boxed-set The Essential Sibelius - I thought that was meant to be a complete edition, so perhaps it has been put in under the wrong name? At any rate, it is recorded on another CD...

A clue for 29, and then I'll reveal later.  This was possibly better known in its arrangement for Violin and Piano as a Heifitz Encore.

Bullseye Mr. Dough! Someone give that man 100 points!

A fairly obscure piece, but recorded by the Ostrobothnian Chamber Orchestra with Juha Kangas on THIS nice CD
