So enjoyed this quiz!! The first clip is my absolute favourite piece of music and for that alone I gave this 5 globes and a favourite. One small thing: the last answer didn't work for me because it won't accept "human" or "peter" as I tried both (I assume your answer field read: human (peter). So unless someone types "human (peter)" it won't register as correct. If you do "human (peter)/peter/human/man/boy" or something like that it will allow for other correct answers. Good job though! I hope it gets a curator pick.

I second NJSB on both the globes and the favourite. This is a terrific concept, and well done, considering it's just your second quiz....
Two-cents department: You may want to slightly narrow column 1, significantly narrow column 2, and give column three a wider space to breathe.

Thank you for the comments! I corrected the last answer for you, NJSB. I'll work on making it look prettier haha! It feels kind of emotional that you like my little quiz so much :)

Needs more obscure birds from Messiaen.

@biscuitsareok: Looks good now; and hey, if people like your stuff, that's a great thing. It will ebb and flow as you continue to make quizzes, and you may make a quiz someday that only one person comments on, and says "nice", but that's what it's all about.

Well, with such recommendations from both NJSB and needapausebutton, who am I to argue? You have now been curator-picked. ¶ Another tip for you, if you really want to pretty up the format: If you type "<br>" right before Gioachino, it will create the line break there, and that cell will be more attractive.

I tried "Peter" on the last answer, and it didn't accept it... Other than that, it was great fun, with a nice variety of pieces!

Thanks for the comment, prouvaire! That was actually intentional as the quiz states to name the type of animal only. I just put Peter in the bracket afterwards to differentiate between him and the grandfather, who also has his own musical representation. Glad you enjoyed the quiz.

Love this quiz. I'd love to see a second one if you're up to it. Possible works for a part 2: Die Fledermaus by Strauss, Stravinsky's Firebird Suite, Puccini's Madame Butterfly, Modest Mussorgsky's The Flea.

I enjoyed this, although who's godwaful idea was that horrible meowing piece? Tchaikovsky's Swan Lake could also be another possibility for a sequel.
