Serenity - I won't count that as a question. Navneeth already asked that. See above.

14. No

Hmmm, maybe it's time to ask some different questions, other than guessing wildly at composer names. :)

5. No

((You're right, *ig wants us to mix it up a bit with our questions))

you're free to do whatever you want. this actually was fine. I just don't like question about the name of the piece/comopser, rather than questions about the piece/composer him/her/itself.
but you could've used a shortcut by asking if the composer is western European.
