Thanks.  Somehow Bach made his way in here  ;D  The ostinato was 4 chords, Bach is 4 notes.

Agreed, 1st prize.

So much has been done with it, it could almost be labeled...you Liszted the Bach rather than Schoenberging or Dallapiccoling it, or even Feinberging it. Godowskying? No, but I got to thinking just how serious those four notes have been treated in history, and still no one Bachs Bach like Bach...or Bach Bached himself with great solenmnety, if only he'd finished the job... ???

Ah well, the rolling hills are lovely.
