ived for a time in a town whose name makes one think of a different composer.

Was it Verdi's Milan?

I'm amazed that we managed to have Alkan without any "foiled" jokes. I'm off to bed too, totally pooped. Work work work...

Well, he lived a good while in New York. So... York Bowen?

He also lived latterly in Radicondoli, near Siena where he was buried. But that doesn't trigger off any associations.

Also at Dartington (for a while I think) but that also doesn't make one think of any particular composer does it?

Well, that makes me think of Peter Maxwell-Davies, but let's not go there...

Certainly no composer called Dartington
