Guess the work!
on: October 17, 2007, 07:05:42 PM
This is a very simple and fun game. For example:



Scar - latte - Sinatra - Canine becomes Scarlatti Sonata K 9.

Everybody's welcome to post their own puzzles.

You're all right! (Except perhaps Thal)

1. Stock - house - microphone

2. Wagner tuba . the rhine - gold

3. Unravel - tomb - coop - ring

Hopefully someone else can come up with a few?

How do you make the images smaller?  Okay, there's no key or opus number on this.......so it's not a specific one, but this is the best I was willing to do right now.

Einstein on the Beach?  No, wait. 

Theme from "Psycho Beach Party"?  No, wait.

(Just funnin', blintz.)

It's Beethoven String Quartet!  (I love that quart container:  "Rain Bird Irrigation Supplement."  What a hoot.  Couldn't find a milk carton, huh?)  ;D

Sorry, I think a little help is needed.
I did rush it a bit.

Pic 1.  What sort of motorbike is it?




Pic 2. I think we have.



Pic 3. I thought that a car fan may get this.




Pic 4. As above.








Sorry, it may have been a bit hard.
I'll do an easier one next time, promise.

Aha!  Rami. 

Chopin Prelude number 7.

Bike is a chopper.  Cho-pan.

Okay Rami, I am a car fan and I tried to figure out what kind of car that was, but the pic was too small to see.    Whenever I see a tricked out car I have the hardest time telling the model.  Honestly, I think I would have gotten it if you had chosen a stock prelude.  Great job though--it was a fun one.

Yes, that's right. I suppose i should have written that as well. The first composer is just his surname, while the other two are their full names. I can give specific hints if you want.

You're all right!

1.
Pork - Cough - F
Hail - 2 - Stalin


Prokofiev - Hail to Stalin

2.
Morris Minor - Ra - Well
Tree - bows - birds of paradise


Maurice Ravel - Trois beaux oiseaux du paradis (a relatively obscure a capella song)
I suppose i should have just put a 3 instead of the tree, the interlingual stuff didn't work out too well.

3.
Cloud - Depp - Uzi
Terrace - Audience - moonlight


Claude Debussy - La terrasse des audiences de clair de lune
