This is a nice starting island. But some of composers will be harder to guess. (JS Bach, Beethoven, Chopin, Debussy, Glass, Mozart, Pérotin, Rachmaninov, Tchaikovsky, Vivaldi, Wagner...)

Tricky bits on this island are Organ compositions of Pérotin (that can sound JS Bach if you don't listen long enough) and piano Tchaikovsky, that can also in haste be messed up with Glass. (JS Bach, Glass, Pérotin, Tchaikovsky)

Vivaldi and Bach are unexpectedly confusing on vocal pieces. The rest three can be simply recognized within 3 sec. (JS Bach, Glass, Perotin, Tchaikovsky, Vivaldi)

Not very balanced island. Pérotin is renaissance. Tchaikovsky is orchestral and dance. Glass is contemporary and minimalistic. Bach and Vivaldi are baroque. Everything is easy here except for choosing between Bach and Vivaldi. You can also see my comments on JS Bach/Vivaldi island. (JS Bach, Glass, Perotin, Tchaikovsky, Vivaldi)

Two contemporary composers. Glass is minimalistic and beautiful. Stockhausen is experimental, chaos, microtonal and weird. (Glass, Stockhausen)

Don't be afraid that this island has 4 composers. They are all very different. Pérotin is renaissance. Bach is baroque. Tchaikovsky is orchestral and dance. Glass is contemporary and minimalistic. (JS Bach, Glass, Pérotin, Tchaikovsky)
