Thanks

So, we are just missing:-

Question 4: Telemann composed around 9,700 works.

• True
• False

(Googled this to death and I think it's false but I can't say for certain)


Question 5: An enigma for you now. Tram's return takes in magical land for composer (6)


(Any crossword experts about? I'm stumped)

Is that 'without repeats'? I love listening to classical music but reading it, well, I find translating Latin in a third person past historic tense easier

I think it's without repeats but it's a long time since I played the piano.

Anyway, I'm off to bed. It's been fun

VERY much appreciated. :hello:

OK, I'm leaving number 4 for now, as I can't find an exact figure. I am certain it's 'False' though, but I'd be grateful if anyone could confirm

Telemann is sometimes called the most prolific composer of all times, being credited with over 800 extant works. He may have written more than 3000 compositions; but many of these have been lost.

Q20. It's a long time since I last read music, but I believe The Minute Waltz has 125 bars without repeats (the section between bars 21-36 being repeated once). This makes the sum 1814/125 = 14.512

I downloaded the score from lilias link. Just the first page is shown on the landing page (which is 23 bars) but the score is 5 pages long.

Q8. Verdi is also on their Romantic composer timeline - I agree with all the others.

Q4. No definitive source found, but I would agree that False is most likely.
