Re:A Chopin Waltz Unearthed After Nearly 200 Years by tunesmith on Sunday October 27, 2024 @02:23PM (#41964502)
There was a time when I was rather good at guessing the composer from hearing a snippet of music I hadn't heard before. We had a group exercise where I had a streak going of guessing correctly every time. Then our instructor tricked us by playing a snippet of a Chopin Concerto that didn't have any piano in it. :)

Love this story. Especially because Chopin often gets flak for his orchestration of his Concertos. Don't suppose you remember roughly where in the music the snippet was?
