Here I'll publish lists mailed to the adress below of the visitors "Rosenberg Top Ten", their desert island Rosenberg pieces etc. To be published here I need your name and country. When I get more lists I'll compile a general top ten of them. In that the pieces will get one point irrespective of its place on your list. No more than ten pieces though! I won't indulge in different versions here, but consider all nominations as concerning the final version. I would prefer if you stick to complete works instead of movements, arias etc.
The intention with the list is that it shall serve as a sort of "Young Person's Guide to Rosenberg", pointing to the most important, original, entertaining etcetera works by Rosenberg. There's quite a lot to choose from for the novice, even if one considers just the recorded pieces!
