[Puzzle 140 has been withdrawn due to identifying tag being left intact, permitting immediate identification of the composer and work]

Quite right, OS. Did you Google, using "Frank Bruno" and "Wallingford Riegger" as your two criteria? Wink



To be precise my google terms were Riegger Frank Bruno 1964. That sufficed.

(There were so many in the last few days while I was in Spain that I would have nailed within the minute if not indeed the second that I felt justified in snaffling one by means of underhand googlery.)

127 - Wallingford Riegger, Music for Orchestra

?

You have the composer correctly identified, and the music is indeed for orchestra, but that is not the title by which I know it, and neither is it anywhere near the title given on the CD I have of it. So that is an incorrect solution to the problem.

Then I will have to redeem myself by announcing that #130 is Alan Bush's Piano Concerto of 1930, with chorus and vocal soloist in the final movement.
It's a tad later than 1930, actually - and far too infrequently performed, too!

137: Schubert's Ständchen (Zögernd leise as opposed to Leise flehen meine Lieder...)

Good work Mr. Sudden!

It is difficult to set anything of Schubert in this competition, because so much of what he wrote is so characteristic.

No, Martle. I have now withdrawn the Puzzle due to having left the tag intact, replete with composer and title identification.

It was indeed by Lucier, but as the tag revealed, "I am sitting I a Room". The sound world is so different from that of "Music on a Long Thin WIre", that I must doubt the credibility of your 'stab in the dark'. Wink
