“Keep it classical”
Hi Strands fans. A nice and easy one today. A theme like “Keep it classical” could only really refer to classical music after all.
And while I might have spent time looking for names of composers in the grid, I quickly saw the spangram of COMPOSITION which made it clear that this was actually going to be about the different parts of classical compositions, rather than the artists themselves.
With that in mind, I found PRELUDE with the last three letters protruding into the spangram. SONATA was above it, with SYMPHONY to its left to complete the top half of the grid.
There were two long words to find on the bottom half. I found CONCERTO spelt backwards from the bottom right, and then OVERTURE diagonally above it to complete the puzzle.
