Is the composer well known? (Would anyone know him?)

check out his sonatas and interludes for piano. early piece, you might like some of them.

of your questions, the first is subjective, but I can answer the second one. 7. yes. this composer has been discussed on the board.

11. I assume you're asking about this composer's work in general. yes, rarely.

I think I'll probably get a No for this, but is the composer Daniel Pinkham?

We haven't set limits for the number of questions/person.The participation is quite low at times, and just three or four members do most of the asking. So don't hold back your questions, we need to solve this BIG

mystery of a composition as quickly as possible.
