As I've been having no luck in the solving of puzzles lately, I'd better keep setting them!

HERE and HERE is Puzzle 51

Have I downloaded the wrong file?  Puzzle 47 appears to be 'I'd like to teach the world to sing' by the New Seekers  Huh

Hmmm, not many guesses at my first 2 snatches - does no-one here, except SG, know any contemporary music? Grin The ensemble playing both is a very well-known piano quartet.

Here's a third one, off a CD this time and a string quartet:

Sounds like Shostakovich No 8 to me, but I expect it'll turn out to be Robert Simpson or something. Wink

I don't remember listening to your earlier puzzle, Andy. I'll try again later.

Hmm, something tells me you may be just the man to solve Andy's 41, tinners. God knows why, though.

I'm going to have a stab at No 35: is it Brahms' Clarinet Trio (with cello)?

Is that 2 half-guesses or one off-topic? Grin

I can see the resemblance to Shosta 8 but it predates it by some time. Not Simpson either.
