have the folks at answers.yahoo.com working on this too and so far no luck. On a side note, its *FANTASTIC* to have IMSLP back. Thank you so much to all those involved.

....that sounds very familiar, especially later in it. If it's an Mp3 in your possession, you can attempt to identify it with the 'musical footprint' -- a few programs like Winamp can do this.

I'd love to know myself.

I give up. I can't figure out what it is.

It appears to be the 5th track of some cd. The length is 7:53 if it hasn't been edited. If only there were a way to search for these criteria inside a CDDB database... I managed to find two such cds on Google, one with Schumann's 3rd sonata and one with a concerto by Hummel, but it obviously isn't one of those.

The piece begins in e minor and ends in e major. That's all I can say right now...

If I had to guess the composer I would say Kabalevsky. I'm probably totally wrong though

Aha. I see you can actually DL this...

The Music ID says it's "Bartok: Scherzo", with Allison Lovejoy playing piano.

And indeed, it's 7:53

Alas, Bartok seems to have written a few of them, but it should be easy to figure out which one.

This particular scherzo is the fourth of Bartok's 4 pieces (DD 71)

Thank you so much!! Great work.

What software did you use to do that?

I had no idea Bartok wrote music like that. Interesting

Yeah, I'm somewhat of an anti-Bartok person (compared to the average classical enthusiast at least) -- but I really liked this. I may have to seek the whole thing out.

Me too. The only works I've heard from Bartok are his Concerto for Orchestra and Music for Strings, Percussion and Celesta.

I'm fairly familiar with Bartok's work, but this came as a surprise. Doesn't remind me at all of the sonata or concerto, Maybe as if a late romantic composer or Rachmaninoff used one of the Romanian Folk Dances as a theme. Was quite a fun find.
