Add a composer game

[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! :grin:

 

[ParryHotter]

Typo for sure

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