Monthly Contest

Every month the library staff chooses a musical fragment for you to identify.

We present our contest for March with a somewhat cryptic description: 'With this song the river became famous'.
Name title of the song, title of the work this song is part of and the name of the composer.

Click here for more information.

We congratulate Marianne van Rijn for being the winner of the February contest.
The correct answer: My funny Valentine by Richard Rodgers and Lorenz Hart.
