	I've been meaning to learn my muses for ages. Great quiz. I'd like to try it the other way round too, perhaps given the names of the muses in greek script?

	I always remember Terpsichore because of the Terpsichore suite by Michael Praetorius. It's some of my favorite music.

	I think that Hesiod's spelling should be accepted too.

	@Andr913: She's not the muse of erotic poetry like some sort of soft-core porn writer. She simply has the role of the muse people need when love is involved. Erato is famously invoked at the beginning of Book IV of the Aeneid, before Dido and Aeneas' torrid love affair.
