italian? ;)

I think a second open window is the only way to include multiple quotes.
I''d probably use WORD.
It used to be easy to do in the "quick reply" mode, because that kept one on same screen as the board. I havent figured out the equivalent yet.
Altoid - curiously strong.

I think I'll keep it this way. it gets updated more quickly. and the post count doesn't hurt. :P :lol:
new recap:
The composer is Italian. his last name doesn't begin with P.
The piece is orchestral with more than two movements/acts/sections, yet is not an opera nor symphony nor concerto, nor sonata, nor ballet, nor overture. no unusual instruments. It was written after 1900.

no. I love the reptile movement.
If any of you don't know any of the pieces mentioned, check them out! Respighi is much more than Pines and Fountains.
