Puzzle 63 is HERE or HERE. This one should be very easy, an opportunity for the quick solver to pick up a good number of bonus points, but do remember that a full and unambiguous identification is needed!

63 = Chopin: Chopin: Etude no.1 in C, Op. 10/1 Mr. Inquisitor is quite correct; he solved it in only 9 minutes, which solution is a most profitable exercise in that it gives him an additional 180 + (180 - 9) = 351 points!

Hurrah! Apologies for the two Chopins...Fred got over-excited when I pasted his name in twice, and I would hate to edit a message...

Aha! Puzzle No 59 is Tchaikovsky The Tempest I think.

A guess for no.58 then, Purcell The Tempest?

Yes, it's the Dance of the Spirits from the Purcell Tempest music.

Ok, buoyed by a new and unfamiliar feeling of success, I find after a bit of a google that Sir Arthur Sullivan wrote some incidental music for the Tempest. Might that be no.57?

He did, but it's not.

Ok, well the Tempest list is quite long - Tippett, Sterndale Bennet, Berkeley...
I'll have a shot at Tippett.

Nope. I think Stuart sort of established the composer some time ago...

Ah! So this isn't the British composer. In that case, Sibelius!

He did, but it's not. Oh well, never mind. I'll have another think. Although I see martle is already thinking pretty damn fast .... Thanks for the light showering of happiness and points though. Now I can clamber clumsily up from the lip of the abyss in the red, and occupy my true home, in a position of mediocrity at the bottom of the pile of big earners.
