Today's Piano Puzzler

​From the archives.  This week's contestant is Benjamin Keating from Monticello, Illinois.  I got the hidden song within a few notes, and I think most people should get it soon enough.  Oddly, though, the contestant was stumped by it – yet got the composer style right off.  In fairness, he acknowledges he’s pretty young, and with a lot of clues does eventually get it.  As for the composer style, it didn’t sound like an area in my wheelhouse, though my guess wasn’t terribly wrong.  But when I heard the answer, I think I should have gotten it, and some of you may.
