Hi Wanderer - -Liszt kinda sneaks up on you. Did you by any chance want a lot of kids or once contemplate becoming a priest or a nun?

I turned out to be Liszt which is strange because I don't even like his music.
I did one of these composer quizzes on anthor sight and I turned out to be Phillip Glass which I could definitely believe. The questions it asked werebetter, too.

I'm Rach as well. And I so wanted to be Brahms (Brahms ended up #9). Damn, nothing turns out how I want....

I am Frederic Chopin "Poet of the Piano".
I do like to write poetry and lyrics; have written songs also.
I really thought I'd be Brahms; I was told by my chorale director my contralto/ mezzo voice is "Brahms like".
I nailed the Brahms German Lieder Solos I did. But Brahm's is #12 for me.

I'm Chopin. I guessed Mozart, and he was second, so I was pretty close! Chopin - The Poet of the Piano - I wonder how they got that?

Guessed Debussy. Got Dvorak first, Debussy second. Might have guessed Dvorak had I known anything about the man, of course, but I didn't

Beethoven Tchaikovsky Schumann
I could have called it, too. I am a moody, brooding, cynical, homosexual with a tendency toward outright pessimism.
Hopefully, I won't follow in Mr. Schumann's footsteps: marry a more acclaimed pianist than myself, fall into madness, and attempt suicide.

Franz Schubert.
I predicted Beethoven, because he is definately my favorite, but I don't know much about Schubert, except that he is "The Lieder King"
LOL
Then it goes Chopin, Mozart and so on so forth.
What is the grading system, I wonder?
