This is a thread about music. All kinds of music: classical, jazz, blues, rock, folk, film music... any kind you can think of. The questions can be about anything related to music: about composers, musicians (performers), styles/periods, musical forms, musical instruments, or about particular pieces or songs.
I'll start with a person.

Kind of feel I should have known the David Bowie one :)
The others I had no idea but was really interesting... especially the Polish sounding name to a country western one!
Yeh, I miss pub quiz too, if you write it, I will answer :)

A new pub quizz, that's GREAT!
How about this: it is a musical form, and it's fictional :D.

Now that's intriguing...
Just to be clear, when you say 'a musical form' do you mean something like a sonata, or a concerto, or an opera? (Only it can't be any of those as they're not fictional).
Is it from a book, a film, a poem, a TV series?

Yes, I mean something like a sonata or an opera, but this specific form is fictional. It is from a TV series, and I'm sure you know it, Cordy :). To be precise, it's a fictional sub-form of a standard musical form.

Now this is niggling away at me. There's something at the back of my mind that's refusing to come forward :)
Is it an American TV series? Or British? Would it be classed as science fiction? Fantasy? Supernatural?

A fictional music form...sounds fascinating! It may turn out to be ordinary, but what I'm thinking up feels great! And it's from a TV series! I should know this, but I bet I'll have missed it :(
Just to be clear, what I'm thinking of now, in a *very* rough way (because I can't really describe it) is something like dragons singing, etc. It's a horrible example, but the only one I can think of to put the colours in my head into words :) I can just see it being called a sub-form of a standard musical form! :D

Is it instrumental or vocal? If so, human vocal, or...other...vocal? :)

Yes, it is an American TV series, and it's classified as SF. It's vocal and instrumental, it's not human vocal, but no, it's not a song of dragons :).

Should have known our khaleesi would try that :P
But, I 've not really read the whole thing yet, and other than, uh, mermaids, or sirens singing (which isn't even from the book :) I dunno :) Vocal and instrumental, but not human-vocal...
