Round 2 (Sequences) Question 1 of 6

Listen to the three music extracts on this page and work out the next in the sequence. For some questions in this round, the solution will be a specific piece of music, but for others, you may suggest any suitable work to complete the sequence. You don’t have to identify every extract.

Clue 1 – The first lady to get the job.

Clue 2 – A composer of ‘max’ quality.

Clue 3 – The first from down-under.

What comes fourth?

ANSWERS

Clip 1 is part of the finale of Judith Weir’s String Quartet (The Kreutzer Quartet). Clip 2 is from the Mass by Peter Maxwell-Davies (Choir of Westminster Cathedral, Robert Quinney [Organ], conductor Martin Baker). Clip 3 is part of the 3rd Piano Concerto by Malcolm Williamson (Leonard Dommett [Piano], the LPO conducted by the composer). Next in sequence would be any piece of music by Sir Arthur Bliss – we are going backwards through Masters of the Queen’s Musick.
