Add a composer game

[rojo]

What works has he composed?

Leo Delibes

[ParryHotter]

Franz Schubert

Excuse me, by the way, I misspelled his name. It should be "Mark Shepperd".
He composed about 6 or 7 published Christian chorale pieces, mostly in SATB settings. He's the Music Minister of the Church at which I accompany.

[rojo]

I`m listening to some of Shepperd`s work right now- nice.

giovanni`s going to be mad at me, posting one of his faves before he gets to-

Charles Tournemire

[giovannimusica]

Dear RoJo,

I'm not mad that you posted one of my faves before I did - Golly Gee - I'm no monster - I'm ecstatic that Tournemire is getting more recognition.

Georges ENESCU


ps. I hope everyone is being honest here - no looking up in Groves Dictionary or online ;-)

[rojo]

I wasn`t really serious, gio; didn`t mean to cast you as some sort of villain, I just know how close to Tournemire`s works you are. My apologies; no harm intended. I should have posted a grin...

Well, you`ve stumped me, gio. Anyone?

[rojo]

Nobuo Uematsu

Ha! I remembered one; I actually taught a piece by this video game music composer called To Zanarkand, from Final Fantasy (don`t ask me which one.)

[Frederik Magle]

Fun game!

But, argghh, there are so few composers that starts with the letter »U«, and the only one I can think of right now (without cheating and searching the net or looking up one of my dictionaries or encyclopedias) is as far as I know not a »classical« composer as such, but here goes (feel free to disqualify my choice): Björn Ulvaeus

[corno]

Ulvaeus? come on...

What about the Schönberg student: Viktor Ullmann ?

[Frederik Magle]

Bah!

alright, next one Per Nørgård

[ParryHotter]

Well, I suppose Anontin Dvorak will have to do.


Great game BTW

[rojo]

I think you type-oed there, Parry; isn`t it Antonin Dvorak?

The only k composer who springs to mind at the moment is Kuhlau, and I`ve forgotten his first name. And what`s worse, now we`re stuck with u again!

If someone has to cheat in order to keep the game going, I would forgive them; I like this game, and u is too difficult!

[ParryHotter]

Typo for sure

Edit: I'm not good at cheating.........lol

[giovannimusica]

Dear Ms. RoJo,

I didn't take it THAT hard

Joe UTTERBACK

[Krummhorn]

ahah, a 'K" ... hmmm ... how about Sigfrid Karg-Elert

[rojo]

Wow.

gio- Phew!
