apparently there's a Ballade for 10 cellos

The conquering hero returns and probably not far off the mark as per. .....

[cloughie]

bagatelle but then there are the Op10 Ballades by Brahms!

[hedgehog]

The conquering hero returns

Is in a way closer to the mark!

We are looking at titles, and it's just " B for 10" (actually "a 10")

(sorry for the late reply, hours are antipodean at the moment)

There's a Galliard Battaglia. First Publication in 1621 in Ludi musici I (No.21)

It's Scheidt.

[Flay]

And Heinrich Biber: Battalia à 10 for solo violin, strings, and continuo

[Flay]

And in Wiki under "battle music not called Battaglia"

Shostakovich: first movement of Leningrad Symphony, despite Shostakovich's disclaimers

John Bull composed "A Battle and No Battle" ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PyVLZeJdQYs )

Congratulations to Flay for 2 of the three Battles: Battalia a 10 by Biber (yes without the g for him apparently as is his Passacalia from the Rosary Sonatas), Galliard Battaglia - nr 21 from the Ludi musici
by Scheidt.

And subcontrabass adding his worthy note of A Battle and No Battle by John Bull. (there was another battle piece by a composer B, but I fought against the obscurity ).

Calling on Flay!

Words nobody wants to hear...

Let me get my brekky and my thinking Cap.

Oh and welcome back everyone!

But let's not forget that AA is open to all here. I do hope others will join in. As cloughie says, it's fun and educational.

This C is a setting for a sextet. Also Russians writing Spanish and Italian

Au cointreau, Rodney - I think these are exactly the words everybody else wants to hear

Against my better judgement, I shall probably join in once I've got my computer problems sorted out. (Having purchased my new Laptop, a 45-minute telephone discussion with those nice people at the Post Office resulted in the news that I need a new Router. Probably. On its way "in three to four days", so I'm stuck with this antique until then.

Gives you more time to think Ferney ......

An unusual setting for a string sextet. Is that a help?
