The Great Composer Quiz – June 2, 2020
This time, it’s a Quiz about holding them, or folding them, gracefully. This Great Composer was reportedly an avid card player. It so happened there is a card game with the same name as our Great Composer. It’s played with a deck of blank index cards, which are written and drawn upon by players before or during the game.
