30Q # 68

[Shapley]

But, devoid of guessing, I'll try to narrow it down further:

Does the opus number end in 6?

[dai bread]

Alright, my guess: Op. 28.

Yes, it does.

[Catmando]

Alright, my guess: Op. 28.

Dai, I won't count your guess, as I answered Shap's question after your guess.

[dai bread]

Thanks Cat.

Try op.16 then.

[Catmando]

Thanks Cat.

Try op.16 then.

No, sorry Dai.

[Shapley]

Hmmmmm. I wonder which one it could be. I'm out of ideas.

[Shapley]

I think we'll just have to Deep Six this 30Q.

[Catmando]

I think we'll just have to Deep Six this 30Q.

I agree!

It is indeed Opus 6. It includes 6 songs. Song # 6 is the one I had in mind. None But The Lonely Heart, song for voice and piano Op. 6/6

Technically, the next 30Q is open to anyone who wishes to do it.

For record-keeping purposes, have you counted the number of questions, Cat? No one guessed it correctly per se and I don't think all 30 questions were asked.

I lost track Nav. I'll have to go back and see how many questions were asked overall (excluding guesses).

[Shapley]

I'll do another one, but it'll be a day to two before I start it.

If someone starts one before then, however, my feelings won't be hurt.

I'll have to brush up my poetry skills


and remember

that
this BBB program
doesn't allow for any spa
ces
in frontofthewords


if

I want to go


MODERN!


It doesn't allow for any big spaces between words either.

[Shapley]

I've noticed that [grumble, grumble, grumble].

But then, I'm not a gib fan of modern poetry. This is, after all, a classical music station, I expect the same of any poetry posted here.

Yeah, right. Like any of my poetry will ever be called 'classic'
