Puzzle 82 is from the first movement of the Symphony in E minor (later numbered the Sixth) by Ralph Vaughan Williams.
Indeed, Richard, but who are the performers? The ph rasing* was rather distinctive, don't you think? [*Just corrected a Reichian slip.] |

Mr. Barrett is absolutely right after only 24 minutes, and gains 180 + (180-24) = 336 points. Can there on this earth walk a man who would not at first hearing love gentle Dr. Williams's distinctive rumpty-tumpties? |

I am not really in a position to judge the ph(r)asing, knowing the piece only from a single recording (conducted by mijnheer Haitink) against which I regret I did not have time last night to compare Mr Grew's snatch. This is my Post of Triumph by the way. Hurrah! |

HERE and HERE is to be found Puzzle 83; it is so difficult to condense this beautiful music to a sixty-second snatch! Puzzle 82 is from the first movement of the Symphony in E minor (later numbered the Sixth) by Ralph Vaughan Williams. Indeed, Richard, but who are the performers? The phrasing was rather distinctive, don't you think? Sorry but we cannot say who the performers were; much of our music is recorded from wireless transmissions, and for us the composer offers ninety per centum of the interest, the performers ten per centum, so rather more often than not we do not bother to record the latter, even. And announcers can be rather annoying in a number of different ways.

HERE or HERE may be found Puzzle 84 - the last one for to-day, and very easy, but what a strikingly robust performance!

Bach - Brandenburg concerto no. 3.
Dammit Sudden, I was just about to suggest Wendy Carlos (pre-arranged JS Bach), Brandenburg Concerto 3:1. Since you failed to name the movement, I claim my £5. |

Mr Sudden rejoices! We admit we did spend a moment wondering if Member Bryn might have had a point concerning the movement number. We did then consult the current rules and were relieved to see: the name of the composer and the unambiguous name of the work will be considered sufficient identification But Hurrah! We had so regretted seeing snatches from works we know extremely well pass by while we were in no position to listen to them. It is thus always a pleasure to be presented with an open goal, or at least an open sna... er... snippet. |

PUZZLE 83:
Let's have a stab then. I'd go for DELIUS: 'Walk to the Paradise Garden'.

83 sounds more like Khachaturian to me.

Sorry - it's BRIGG FAIR (Delius) Absolutely right! We had been expecting Members to suggest Rachmanninoff. It was in Liverpool under the bāton of Sir Granville Bantock that Brigg Fair: An English Rhapsody was first played - in the year 1908. And it was Plato was it not who in 350 B.C. wrote " Musical innovation is full of danger to the state, for when modes of music change, the laws of the state always change with them." |

Spurred on by Madame Antheil's ghostly presence on this thread (we expect and await her materialization here any time now) may we suggest for puzzle 75 the waltz Erinnerung an Covent-Garden (Recollection of Covent Garden) by Johann Strauss the Younger?
