It helps to know the pronunciation of these composers' names.
A little use of other languages has been made (French, German & obviously Latin).
Answers in alphabetical order.

Re: Musical puns, jokes, and teasers
The theme seems to suit the composer of the Sonata in B minor
but
5 is Hubay
7 is Monti of Czardas fame
the rest you can work out for yourselves I give no more clues

Brian

Re: Musical puns, jokes, and teasers
I thought 1 was Bloch also but as he is Swiss and the others aint then surely it must be someone else or is there a composer called Blok? the maker of our misery must clarify this one I think.Timtin wrote:1. Bloch

Re: Musical puns, jokes, and teasers
Yes, well done.
1, 2, 5, 7 and 11 all correct. The Bloch here is Jozsef rather than Ernest.
Will anyone get the trick question I wonder?
