Hello all,

It seems I have been recruited to pick 10 random
numbers between 1 and 20.

My method was to use the RAND function in a spreadsheet
document in Clarisworks 2.0. I put "=RAND(20)" in 20
cells and got 20 random integers in the range 1-20.

Discarding duplicates and taking the first 10 unique
numbers I get:

16
8
20
15
12

14

2

13
1
11

If we map those to the pieces listed that gives:

[16] Tocatta from Organ Symphonie No. VI by
Charles-Marie Widor

[8] Prelude from "Pour Le Piano" by Claude Debussy

[20] Tocatta for harpsichord No. 3 by J. S. Bach

[15] Passacaglia for organ by Georg Muffat

[12] Nocturne in C-sharp minor by Frederic Chopin

[14] John Bull: Fantasia Ut, Re, Mi, Fa, Sol, La

[2] Dance Piece from "Klaviermusik" Op. 37 II by Paul
Hindemith

[13] Sonata No. 317 by Scarlatti

[1] "Rag-Caprice" by Darius Milhaud (from "Trois Rag-
Caprices")

[11] "Carillon" from "Eleven Children's Pieces" by
