A tonebase Piano video hypothesized that a B minor piece by this composer was “cursed” after Magdalene Ho was eliminated in the prelims of the 2025 Cliburn. A sonata by this composer begins allegretto ben moderato in 9/8 time with the piano playing an E dominant ninth chord. This composer’s Six Pieces for Organ include Prélude, fugue, et variation and Grand pièce symphonique. This composer was called “père” by students such as Vincent d’Indy, who described the tendency of his multi-movement works to be connected by an underlying theme as “cyclic form.” This organist at the church of Sainte-Clotilde and composer of a Symphony in D minor told a countryman to premiere his A major violin sonata “con amore” at his wedding. For 10 points, Eugène Ysaÿe (“oo-ZHEN ee-ZYE”) premiered the violin sonata of what Belgian composer? ■END■
