        Ah, no; I don't know this piece. The answer on the card is very similar to Ms Pritchard's.


        No. I was tempted to include Genesis' Invisible Touch but decided to settle on a purely "Classical" triumverate. The "invisible" here is a translation of a title by a very different Brian, "shades" being salient.

          Overlapped post with merc's - but none the less true.

          Mercs mentioned in dispatches, but subby's is the J (don't make it too blue!)

            A J to link:

            (1) a pupil of and later collaborator with Holst;

            (2) a scholarly conductor;

            (3) a Minstrel.

                No. This conductor is still alive.

                    Correct on all three. You have the Knowledge.

                        Thank you! I'll work on my 'K' (that makes me sound like a career civil servant, which is far from the case!)

                          Which 'K' provided subjects for works featuring the youngest child of a Landgrave, a symbolic damaged container and a queen loved by a Greek?

                            I think I shall plump for Edward MacDowell's Lamia opus 29
                            Queen of Libya loved by Zeus (?)



                            I'm still reeling from how you found Jane

                              I googled 'Holst's pupils' and up she popped.
                              I knew that Jane Glover has had at least one book published ('Mozart's Women').
                              Lamia is not the queen you're looking for, nor is Zeus the Greek.

                                EDIT - is our damaged container a Grecian Urn (as set by Holst) ?
