I cheated Cliff, on my own classical guitar repertoire I play 6 pieces from Terpsichore, so that was fairly easy, the one on the album is fairly easy.

I can't find a Guitar version in a hurry, this is a very good organ version.

Wrong one, I said Terpsichore, about 200 years earlier.
I have heard Toccata and Fugue played as a guitar duet but would be loath to attempt it.
Get out the Guitar and Banjo for this one.....

Spend years studying, doing all my AMEB exams and get Yee Haa'ed like that.

There is a finger picker here in Oz called Micheal Fix who can do it solo.
I saw it twice last year at the Yungaburra folk festival..... awesome. :eek:
Cliff, thanks for the reference to Sky. Have been looking for 'Dance of the Little fairies' for years. 5/4 time for those in the know and very catchy.
Has the question been answered?
Carry Pine
Yeap, Iain got it but he spend so much time blowing his trumpet about it that he forgot to ask the next question. :DQuote:

Soooo it is OK to have 113 pages of drivel here. It is not fair is it?
Got to agree espically when they are talking this musio stuff which is proberly more dribble to the un musioed than fridays lot, at least on fridays anyone can contribute and fit into the dribble if they are so inclined as long as they don't make too much sence :rolleyes:Quote:

OK I'll go with HAUTBOY. Have to admit I looked it up in an encyclopedia.
My other post about the 'faggott' I was partly right. The 'fagott' is the old name for the bassoon. Oops that is sure to get me in trouble with at least one member of the forum.
Well is hautboy correct?
Swaggies of course :D :D :D :DQuote:

I actually gave Cliff the answer in my response to him, Hoboy, and Hautboy is also correct, so, give the man a banana (more expensive than a good cuban cigar at the moment).Quote:

Now get off your Sackbut (another musical instrument) and throw in a question.
And the Crumhorn was the double reeded forunner to the oboe.
You only answered part of the question. Apparently the oboe was developed from an earlier instrument called the shawm. No Google ;)
I Wikied :p
OK I think it's my turn to ask a question and I'm changing the subject from ancient instruments. Which is the odd one out here and why: St Mary, St Lawrence, St Kilda, St Anne, St Francis.
Good luck
St Kilda wasn't a saint?
St KIlda is the only one who doesn't have decent footy team:confused:
Correct, you can sit on my trivia table any day. Ask away!Quote:

Ok Question is :-
Who producted the first recording that Lou Reed appeared on? and what was the full name of the band and their live performance?
I hope the silence does not indicate a lack of interest in Lou Reed.
Who?
Never.... :cool:Quote:

OK I'll part answer my own question to give you a clue.
Andy Warhol was the producer. So what was the name of the live performance called.
Drop some acid and hope for a flash back Cliff.;) :D
Without google, I have got buckley's. :confused:
In the interest of a quick game, the answer is The Exploding Plastic Inevitable. I guess I can ask another.
OK for double bonus points.........
How many noble gasses are there?
Helium, neon, argon, krypton, xenon & radon. Guess that makes 6.
Well done Alex.. sock it to em.Quote:

Here's a question I was aked the other day. It had me flummoxed for a while...
Are fireworks considered to be high explosives? Why or why not?
Depends who you talk to.
If you look at the energy potential of your average fireworks compared to TNT/Plastic Explosives etc you will find that fireworks have a fraction of the explosive power. So from that argument no.
