Interesting show - I must listen to it next week :). With both the pieces (both
the actual puzzle and the preceding illustration), I could get the composer
but not the tune - though, the actual puzzle was based on tune I didn't know
(and wouldn't have much of a chance of knowing from this side of the Atlantic,
to be honest). I wonder how often the contestant identifies the tune? :-).

Well done, too :)

Oh, first post in ages, and it's off-topic :-). Can't even add an
ObConlang, since
I haven't done anything in ages. Though, reading a book on grammaticalisation
is giving me some interesting ideas... :-)
