A little birdie pointed out that we seemed to have a little fun with
the mystery piece from a few days ago (the William Tell Overture), but
I think almost everyone will agree it was way too easy.  So, I decided
to try another.  A short (<2 min) excerpt can be found here:

This comes from a recording in my collection, so I know what it is.
It's a very tough one though - an obscure piece - so I may have to give
hints.  Heck, it's probably too hard, but we'll see.

In any case, I picked it because I find it quite beautiful, and somewhat
remarkable.  If this generates some interest, perhaps we'll do it
semi-regularly.
