One question left

Less well known than all those guesses. In fact I hadn't heard of this person before Friday.

He appears to be born in Ukraine which has a coast to Black Sea, am I wrong?

Ah, you're right - I only saw "Mediterranean" and not "Black". I humbly scratch my guess (though I don't know if I will come up with another).

Also not Scriabin for that exact reason, being born in Moscow and for for Russia bordering Black Sea. I was excited there.

I think this person has to be from the Baltics or Finland, right? I was thinking Eino Kettunen (the guy who wrote Ievan Polkka) but he was born too late.

Maybe we should narrow down the geographical region so we can check each countries history in more detail?

I have an idea of who it could be, but it's not worth it to take an unfree guess before Q20. Maybe we could ask if the country is landlocked? That would cut the country list in half.

The other thing I was wondering - what if it’s not a composer?

I'm not convinced that it is, but it could be.

There's another person I found, but I think he might be a native speaker of a Germanic language.
