    Guessing Your Favourite Piece of Music

    I did this for a laugh and they did guess my favourite composer at least:

    I usually find there aren't enough options to choose from in the questions.

    For instance, the question , What do you like doing in your spare time?

    Choose from the following.
    1. Nothing that takes too long.
    2. Aviation
    3. Musing about the state of humanity over a bottle of red wine
    4. Spending time with my children.


    Well I'm not off to a good start as I can't choose from any of those.

      I got Mozart's Clarinet Concerto. Not my favorite piece, nor my favorite composer, but not too far off!

        I attempted this test but gave up at question four. Not a single question up to and including that one has an option that remotely resembles something I'd pick for myself.

              It's generally considered to be the greatest symphony ever written - so we're not doing too bad.
              It shows our good taste!

                I decided to give this a try again and stick with it until the bitter end. Despite not one response option in any single question being something I felt comfortable with, and the music sample being blocked so that I couldn't hear it, I ended up with . . . Beethoven's Ninth! How in the world that came out on top is beyond me, though I am certainly more than pleased that it did.

                      My guess on this is that they are trying to figure out what sorts of ads they can include with the websites people visit. The musical works are probably just randomly selected, regardless of the quiz. ;-)

                          I got Chopin's Minute Waltz followed with them adding "A simple, delicate work of precision and beauty - much like you, obviously."

                          Well, they weren't able to guess my favorite classical piece or even my favorite composer. Better luck next time...
