Re: TONIGHT'S QUIZ - WEDNESDAY 26th MAY


Yes, Arvo Pärt in 1978. It is curiously haunting isn't it? I can see why you said about schoolchildren sitting quietly through it. Quite beautiful, but sad.

Next Q: Of the roughly 725 venomous snakes worldwide, how many are able to kill a human with one bite ?

(3 points to the player who gets nearest and so forth)

Not surprising Yola. It was his last composition before leaving his Estonian homeland.

Re: TONIGHT'S QUIZ - WEDNESDAY 26th MAY

I'll guess 10 Angie.
Yes the children sat as if hypnotised but all hell broke loose once it finished. I used to want it to go on forever.
