Seperated at birth ( besides Orson Welles and young Dietrich Fischer-Diskau and Harry Christophers and Lionel Blair ) are young Claudio Abbado and Bryan Ferry and whoever no 17 is and young Bob Dylan.

More seriously, is no 16 Aaron Copland ?

I thought of Bryan Ferry too Bobbyz Cheesy
16.isn't Copland. 16. is a pianist, no longer with us

I should also say that 14. is better known as a conductor, also no longer with us

It's just as well 14's a conductor.  His bow hold is terrible, and the bow is crooked across the strings.   Roll Eyes

... and, a bit of a guess, I don't suppose 14 is Rudolf Kempe?

15 could just about be Dinu Lipatti

This 'quick' quiz remains incomplete. Additional clues to assist in their identification:


14. conductor, born Budapest, Hungary


15. edit: pianist, born Odessa, Ukraine


17. violinist, born California, USA
