Brahms orchestrated a piece in this form from his version for two pianos that quotes the “Chorale (20[1])St. Antoni.” The cellist Wilhelm Fitzenhagen (20[1])revised a Tchaikovsky composition in this form (20[1])inspired by (20[1])(*) Rococo (10[1])music. (10[7])The movement “C. (10[1])A. E.” represents (10[1])the composer’s (10[1])wife in a piece (10[1])in this form that parodies the (10[2])stutter of his friend Dorabella. The ninth of the (10[1])14 movements of that work (10[1])in this form is dedicated to Augustus J. Jaeger (10[1])and nicknamed “Nimrod.” (10[3])For 10 points, name this (10[1])form (10[1])of a piece by Edward Elgar called “Enigma.” (10[3])■END■ (10[5])
