Joel M. of Saskatoon, Canada won this week's contest by correctly ID'ing Claude Debussy's Sacred and Profane Dances

This week's concert is a great study in contrasts. Standing next to each other are some of the most dreamy orchestral pieces; beautiful washes of sound broken up by arguably the most primal piece of them all.
