Add a composer game

Anyone for a game? :grin:

I`ll start by posting the name of a composer. Then another person posts a composer whose name starts with the last letter of the name I posted. Composer last names only.

Ex. Charles Ives; next post could be Robert Schumann.

Ok, here goes- Richard Wagner :)

Thanks for playing, gio, but you only need to name one composer, and the name you post should start with the last letter of the previous post. So the last name of the composer you posted should have started with R.

So I`ll go from your last post-

Franz Liszt

Oooh... We`ve got some knowledgeable posters in this thread! (ie. I have no idea who Lyapunov, Nancarrow and Noehren are- will check them out shortly)

Ralph Vaugh Williams

Just heard part of his 'Lark Ascending' on the radio- very nice.

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.

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

Commodore de Cavaille-Coll
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 ;-)

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?
