A Game of Nations and Regions (Edition United Kingdom/Ireland)

Edition United Kingdom/Ireland is the seventh entry in this series. First, we will select and vote on composers. Second, we will select and vote on compositions. For each of the two categories, the top ten will then be available for additional national/regional games.

Composer Selection Rules:

1. You may vote once daily.

2. When you vote, you will have up to 5 composers to select.

3. Voting will end when participation significantly recedes and/or the entries are becoming quite obscure.

My 5 selections for today:

Arnold
Bridge
Moeran
Walton
Vaughan Williams

Note: Being born in the United Kingdom or Ireland is not a guarantee of selection approval. Conversely, being born in a country other than the United Kingdom or Ireland does not guarantee a rejection of the selection. In cases where there is some dispute, I will render a final decision.

Looking forward to your selections!
