According to Wikipedia, the following composers have all written a Berceuse: Alain, Brahms, Chopin, Bridge, Busoni, Crumb, Debussy, Fauré, Goddard, Gounod, Grieg, Ives, Jarnefelt, Lyapunov, Ravel, Stravinsky, Tchaikovsky, Vierne and some less well-known ones. Curiously, they do not mention Satie. Why did you choose him as the answer to the question?

Good to see quizzes like this, but I agree with CardinalSin that Berceuse is a very odd choice for Satie (even though he did write one). Equally, Walzer for Bartók is a weird choice: he wrote some Waltzes when he was nine years old, but they are hardly representative. Also: 'What a Wonderful World' was not composed by Louis Armstrong, but by Bob Thiele ('George Douglas) and George Weiss. Armstrong made the first recording – but as the performer, not the composer.
