Last winner:

The winner of the 'Guess the Composer' quiz earlier this week was John Dyer of Bradley near Huddersfield.

As he told 4BR: "I wasn't totally convinced because he does have a look of Philip Wilby about him, but I eventually went for Igor Stravinsky, because I know he does have extensive connections to Montreux."

Spot on John — and he looks down on all the bandsmen and women as they compete at the Swiss National Championships — and as they try to make their way to the bar!

Thanks to everyone who took part — and good luck this weekend.
