I gave it a spin. It's The Donkey Serenade by Rudolf Friml. So not classical, but since it's operetta, quite close. It does sound a little like Prokofiev, come to think of it.

Thanks Crisp - it doesn't say how long the sale will last. Do you know? No idea, MG. Sorry. ISTR a similar sale last year, so if you pass on this one, there's bound to be another.
