Well, the audition thread has nearly dribbled to its end, haqving
achieved nothing other than increasing animosity between list members.

To distract further attention from it, to make sure it dies, I'll
propose a quiz question promoted by Hans' recent post:

   From: Hans Pizka <[email protected]>

   Hello Tom, 

   you need glasses or new goggles or spectacles, so not to read Natalina for 
Natalino.
   The "o" changes the sexes.
   Sometimes could result into an disaster ......... 

Here's the question:

There is a certain talented, generally-respected, and _extremely_
influential musician from the 20th century (but still alive) who
underwent a mid-career sex change.  IMO this person had as much
influence on ongoing musical practice as did Mozart or Beethoven in
their day.  Who is this person?

I suspect the oldsters are more likely to know the answer than the
youngsters.  (Why do we say "dial" a phone?)  Those who know the answer
might delay posting it to the list for a day so youngsters can ponder
the question.
