Try again if the links don't work. My server is very slow, so most people have to try quite a few times.

Don't worry about missing this game, since I have much more updates to make

Do you need more updates? You can always download random clipits from Amazon. They let you "preview" the tracks.

Otherwise, I think I can help.

Well, i've got about 15 more clips queued right now. You can add your own clips to here too. If so, start numbering from guess2xx or so, and I can add them to the first post.

OK. You should also put the "answer" next to the guesses so that we don't repeat later on.

1. I will post a short clip (around 30-sec) of a work by a composer (from baroque to 20th century), and the first person to name the composer, and piece will gain a point.
2. If there are multiple pieces with the same name by the same composer, the winner is required to differentiate it from the others with the same name. Differentiation can come from opus number, year composed, key signature, etc.
3. Another way of winning a point is to name the performer/conductor/orchestra/chamber group that recorded the work. This point doesn't have to be awarded to the same person who names the song.
4. I will update once most of these have been guessed correctly.

Mozart?

 

[Vertimus]

I'll give you three more hints for guess015.mp3

1. This is fugal music (although you guys probably know this already)
2. The composer was famous for fugal music in the years before his death
3. The composer personally met Liszt

Updated with guess016.mp3, guess017.mp3, and guess018.mp3.

 

[Otaking]

Woohoo! 018 is Beethoven Waldstein #21 (1st mvmt)

..and it was the only link that worked for me.

Good Job

Try again with the others now, now that the ATOT effect died down.

guess13: Were just Guesses, but I really loved it. Though I really
don't know that much about Classical music.

Is #17 Liszt?

#17 - Lizst Sonata in B Minor

Good job!

 

[Descartes]

Pretty certain #15 is a Beethoven Sonata, but the specific one and movement escapes me. My guess right now is #27. For performer I'm going to guess Kempff or Ashkenazy.
