So You Think You Know Your Mozart?


If you do, take this BBC test.

im slightly younger ears..26 yr old....10/10 first time , and it ws very easy...but enjoyable.
I missed a couple. However, the test illustrates an interesting fact. When you are familiar with a piece of music it takes only a few of the first notes to identify it. This was brought to light in connection with a law suit some time ago involving "theft" of certain copyrighted material. Steal only two or three notes/chords and you can be in trouble. It would be interesting if the BBC test kept track of playing time before correct answers.
10/10 the first time through for me too. The Haydn versus Mozart piece was the tricky one for me and I don't believe I had heard that one before...so I had to make a judgement call.

I won't give the answer away but it is not always easy to tell the difference between Haydn and Mozart (unless you really know how to recognize Mozart's style, which apparently I do)

That was fun... makes you feel good!
Nsgarch- I am only 24 ;) mixing in baroque and romantic music wasn't even fair when comparing it with a classical period composser.
