Does this mean I can go back to the strategy of asking if the composer's last name begins with the letter "X"? :D

Stumped? I thought I was doing OK for lil-ol-me! (I-think-I-can I-think-I-can)

you have about 6 more questions :). the "does the composer's name begin with..." question is more boring even then my strategy.

Was the Pulitzer awarded between 1950 & 2000?

Ok, one more recap please! Time to do some research, one more question and then my guess.

Do I get 2 more questions, then my guess, or only 1 more question and a guess? :twisted:
