I always tell my students that "songs" require singers. No singers-no songs. Then we have "pieces" instead!!!

[@adiosmusictest]

Thanks for very valuable remark. I have already replaced "songs" in part V!

[@jeffdutton1910]

...and yet Felix Mendelssohn wrote some 48 songs without words...the exception that makes the rule i suppose.😉

[@malthuswasright]

You wouldn't have been much of teacher for Mendelssohn then!

[@joshyman221]

Well most songs have singers and most pieces with voice are songs but they aren’t the same. As someone has pointed out, songs without words are songs. And Mozart lacrimosa from his Requiem isn’t a song.

[@mysticmouse7261]

The dumbing down of the culture.

[@averney]

I love the way you lay out the test!

[@adiosmusictest]

Thanks. It turned out good))

[@caseylwr]

We iike your quiz series a lot. Missed out on 2 composers on this one, Good fun,

[@mindanielj.9479]

like*

[@ProfessorDBehrman]

Thanks for another great quiz. I love your graphics. This quiz was a little harder, but I knew 11 by name.

[@adiosmusictest]

Part IV now in progress. I hope it will be ready in a one or two weeks.

[@robertagregory7177]

This was fun, thank you. 😊

[@zjschrage]

Hungarian Dance is #5 not #6 btw. Also what is the intro music from, its very nice.

[@adiosmusictest]

You were very attentive, as was Franz Liszt :) .. Intro Music: Edvard Grieg - Anitra’s Dance from Peer Gynt

[@muzluv33]

Got them all - that was the easiest quiz so far! Liszt's comments were funny but didn't need his list. In regard to current numbering the Brahms Hungarian Dance you played was the No. 5 in G Minor. The no.6 is in D Major. Otherwise another fun quiz.

[@paulgeidel4195]

This was the easiest of all your tests that I've seen so far. I got 15/15 on composers and knew 13 of the correct titles. When one says "Johann Strauss", they usually mean the more famous son, whom I know you call "Jr." (1825-1899) in other tests. People should know that this march was written by the father.

[@adiosmusictest]

Yes, I agree with Strauss. Next, I’ll try to include father and son everywhere)) and don’t forget Richard

[@teodoragradinaru8572]

15/15🎉🎉🎉

[@razan-xs3qj]

thank you for posting 14/15

[@alenkapintar8660]

14/15. All very well known compositions. Good choices. Some of my favorites.

[@jeglop]

same

[@paxofacha3041]

Very nice!!

[@johannesbluemink4581]

15/15 composers and 12/15 exact name of composition. Great!

[@cecilj4129]

you could maybe make a distinction between the two Strauss'? Danube strauss is junior, radetzkey strauss is senior

[@adiosmusictest]

Thank you for your comment. I don’t understand exactly which part, but then I began to indicate both the elder and the younger everywhere, but there are also other relatives of them))

[@gautama2009]

Bizet's carmen overture is names here Thoreador song. Bless

[@ukdavepianoman]

13/15. I know the Waldteufel and Massenet pieces but didn't know the composer. Well I know now :) The other 13 were easy for me.

[@muzluv33]

In jy school days went ice skating every Friday afternoon. Heard the Waldteufel at the rink every week after week after week.....

[@alixhesse7989]

Bizet - Ouverture to Carmen

[@muzluv33]

Yes you are correct. The Toreador song is featured right after the excerpt played. "Toreador en garde!".

[@amazingyarik6981]

не находите, что в одном месте пятый венгерский танец брамса уж очень похож на смуглянку в том ее моменте, где поется "раскудрявый клен зеленый лист резной"?

[@adiosmusictest]

Абсолютно такие же ассоциации ..

[@RetiredBrass]

Aww, you missed a pun! Franz should have said "I am on the Liszt"... Very nice selection, but not very hard. 15/15 again.

[@adiosmusictest]

Thanks. I used a similar phrase in one of the parts))

[@lisa1212ification]

15/15

[@angreagach]

Did you know that Brahms' Hungarian Dance number 5 is actually mostly a ripoff of a piece by Béla Kéler (or Kéler Béla in Hungarian order) called Bártfai Emlék (Remembrance of Bártfa). (The middle section, in the major, is from a folk tune called Uccu bizony megérett a káka (Come, the rush is well ripened).) (Both of these are available on KZbin.) Brahms' Hungarian Dances are mostly arrangements of Hungarian folk tunes (or tunes Brahms erroneously believed to be folk tunes, as in this case) and Brahms did not pretend they were anything but. (Bártfa, now Bardejov in Slovakia, was Kéler's birthplace.)

[@journeymancellist9247]

Speaking of Bizet, he wrote a terrible opera called Dr. Miracle. I mean terrible. But the overture is quite charming

[@thomasthompson6378]

You should note that the Redetsky March is by Johann Strauss Sr. (since elsewhere you have some pieces by his son).

[@adiosmusictest]

Yes. I did not note this fact in video.

[@snejpu2508]

12,5/15.

[@patrickdemarcevol]

Waldteufel by deduction because I didn't know his name, but the rest was easy again. Still, getting clever this program, I'm now interested 😀

[@adiosmusictest]

To make it interesting - that's the point. Well, also searching for new beautiful melodies.

[@chel3SEY]

12/15... again.

[@ralphoperaphile]

Too easy, Dmitri! 100% here (PS - spelling mistake in "Tchaikovsky"

[@adiosmusictest]

Thanks. I have a lot of similar mistakes, because my literacy and english is far from perfect))

[@ukdavepianoman]

True....but Russian spelling doesn't always translate directly into English letters.

[@ralphoperaphile]

Yes- but we have conventional spellings, usually employed

[@symphonyofsolidarity]

Btw i just realised that Minuetto sounds like the christmas carol o christmas tree

[@virginiasarullo8510]

14/15 but the hungarian dance was the n.5 not the n.6

[@adiosmusictest]

Yes, You absolutly right! In video there is a Franz's Tip about It!

[@RenatoZenobi-fy7mr]

too easy

[@adiosmusictest]

According to reviews, Part V is the most difficult now.

[@shalghamkhor5939]

Joplin is not classical musician Wtf?

[@JohnHawkins-he7mg]

Scott Joplin is NOT part of Western Music.

[@adiosmusictest]

OK. He has many famous works.

[@dinck]

What would make you think that? Scott Joplin certainly is!

[@1bunnyadam]

Why wouldn’t he count? I’m curious as to your reasoning. He was influenced by western marches and folk music. He’s also American which is considered a western country. By that standard is Gershwin also not considered classical? Or Williams?

[@PattyDung]

Everyone knows Scott Joplin is Vietnamese. Therefore, he's Eastern, not Western !

[@muzluv33]

He certainly is. He invented ragtime a long acknowledged form of American and by definition Western Music which influenced other composers of the 20th century to write music in that style. Example Bolcom's Green ghost rag. And Joplin also composed an opera, Treemonisha - not a great libretto granted but should be performed more often due to the music.
