Feel free to comment on the Quiz and post your results below.

I scored 113/144, using no references. I was perfect on the Tone Poems and Symphony No. 5 section, and was miserable on the "Other Works" and "Trivia" sections.

102/144. Most of the missed answers were in the biographical sections, and some in the "other works" section.

Just a little note, Mr. Boswell is a member of the Sibelius forum... see if you can solve the mystery of what his member name is!

OK, I'm revisiting this without any references... yes, I did cheat a little last time (when I didn't know tempo markings and such).

Section 1: 12/12 Yay!
Section 2: 10/12
Section 3: 10/12
Section 4: 7/12 ... I never knew much about the Second...
Section 5: 10/12 I was kinda surprised to miss a question about the Third... oh well.
Section 6: 8/12 I never knew anything about the Fourth, either...
Section 7: 7/12 Same...
Section 8: 10/12
Section 9: 8/12 I never knew the Seventh didn't have a designated key in score!
Section 10: 9/12
Section 11: 8/12
Section 12: 7/12 Terrible... I guessed most...
Contributors' Section: 2/12 That was outright depressing...

Total: 108/156
