Question

Note to players: composer and type of piece required.An early one of these works is marked with “the greatest delicacy” in a fourth movement adagio titled "La Malinconia." Toward the end of an E-major scherzo, a ghostly pianissimo sul ponticello is played in one of these works that opens with the notes “G-sharp, B-sharp, C-sharp, A.” David Levy investigated the notation of two tied eighth notes in one of these works that begins with a 24-bar overture of unison (*) G’s. One of these works with seven movements was (15[1])played on Franz Schubert’s deathbed. One of these works, called “contemporary forever” by Igor Stravinsky, was originally the finale of the 13th of these works, three of which were dedicated to Count Razumovsky. For 10 points, name these pieces such as the Grosse Fuge for two violins, viola, and cello by the composer of the Eroica Symphony. ■END■
