In case of many composers, their full is actually not accepted as the correct answer (Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Edvard Hagerup Grieg, Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky and perhaps most surprisingly Johann Sebastian Bach - he is never referred to just as Johann Bach, as far as I know). Could you please change it?

Chopin (and probably others) also composed a piece called 'Bolero', although the one by Ravel is better known.

I couldn't figure out for the life of me how to spell Pachelbel. Apart from that, I did pretty well.
