Sorry for the people who were to do the quiz in 4 minutes, I changed the time!

It still is. Glad to hear that it is not your intention, because it totally ruins the quiz, 2,4 seconds per answer.

Oh no! I see; I guess it's a bug. Everytime I try to set the timer to 15 minutes, it resets when I save. I'will re-upload the quiz!

Now 20 minutes is great, there is time to think. Thank you!

PS. As a Finn I would like to see Jean Sibelius here, but I respect your choices.

Nice to hear!

I had never heard of Jean Sibelius before, but I just listened to a few of his compositions (one of which was Finlandia) and it sounds great!

I'll probably change him out for one of the more unknown French guys, because France is a little overrepresented and I did not include a single Finn...

PS. Finland is by far the 'coolest' country of Europe :)

Thank you! It shows great dedication that you wanted to listen to Jean Sibelius. Finlandia is considered to be his major work, and it is commonly loved and respected here in Finland.

I agree that some countries are so well represented here that it is good to have also other countries, if possible. But this is a great quiz already.

PS. Finland is cool. THE Winter is again coming. :)

I would like to hear or you would prefer some famous works given. If so: in this quiz or in a different one?

My personal choice was to focus on the chronology, but probably most of you just guess answers (what's totally fine).

Is it too hard in that case?

It's a great quiz! Please can you allow standard British/US spellings of Russian names: Tolstoy, Tchaikovsky, Dostoevsky (and variations of those). Also, it's Shelley, not Shelly, and it would be good to allow the usual form of Mondrian (the form he used after 1906). Glad to see Sibelius – but it's a little strange not to see Wagner or Verdi in the 19th century.

Nice to hear that.

Sorry for the Russian names;

I'm from the Netherlands and here all of those are written differently!

I'll fix Shelley's name and will allow Mondrian.

As for Wagner or Verdi: I was trying not to overdo the composers and Italy and Germany already got many names in the list.
