George, Yes!

22. Philip Ledger - Correct

OK, mainly a choir master but he has conducted the ECO and other orchestras.

I've got one more set of 5 conductors that I had put together for this week so I'll post them up in a little while.

5 for you (or is it 6) and 0 for me. I don't know even one I think.
I have to wait for you to tell me. Who is going to guess?

Well he's been hard at work on his most famous work.
You could say he's dead tired.

3 are Dufay and Binchois ( courtesy of Wikipedia, having a hunch that you might have gone for Dufay after reading another thread )

1 could be LvB in one of the less common images of him ? Thought the hairstyle of 4 was Lisztian and could 5 be a young Monteverdi ?

Looked up various guesses at 20th century composers for 2 but no luck.

Yup. A bit of a give away to include Dufay...
Not LvB, but this fellow could have been imitating his style.
4 is not at all Lisztian (not unless he was significantly before his time).
5 is not a young Monteverdi.

He is!
Is No 2 a young Alexander Goehr?
It is!

Well done so far. I think that number five might be a real stumbling block. Would it help to know his nationality?
