Puzzle 92 may well be the Sonata for two pianos and percussion by Bartók Béla.

It's either that or the Hungarian Bartok's 2nd concerto for fortepiano and orchestra.

That is, indeed, the correct answer Richard.

Would no.71 be the Stabat mater by John Browne, from the Eton Choirbook?

That is again the correct answer Richard - well done. (But has it saved my 'acculated' [sic] bonus points I wonder?)

94 seems to be JS Bach's harpsichord concerto in G minor BWV 1058.

HERE is puzzle 96 - we hope members will not find it as difficult as Browne's the Englishman or Aperghis's the Greek. Beware - it is rather loud at the beginning!

(Sorry - Sendspace is out of action at present and we shall provide a link later. We did successfully upload it there as puzzle 95 only to find - there is always a slight fear that it will happen - that Mr. Iron had anticipated us with the number.)

96 = Is it C.P.E. Bach's Magnificat in D major?

Hurrah! I confess I don't know the CPE Bach, but knew the composer wasn't JS! The clip I listened to online (Haenchen on Berlin Classics) was considerably swifter than Mr Grew's recording, but enough to confirm our suspicions!

Number 95 sounds like a fine performance of the Fugue from Bach's D minor Prelude and Fugue BWV 539.
