    ... after the eFFortFul F, perhaps an easy G:

    Chronologically, Weldon precedes Manuel's - and both might be surrounded by Cecil and Percy's.

      Hmmmmm.....
      "...the isle is full of noises,
      Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.
      Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
      Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices..."

        Is the Weldon concerned:

        - John, the 17th/18th C composer; or

        - George, the conductor inc. of the CBSO; or

        - Neither?

        It can't be as simple as G for George...

        The only other G I've been toying with is Ruth Gipps. Can't fit Manuel, Percy or Cecil in at all (big girl, Ruth... )

            ... well, in part! But Granada is not the answer.

            But, from another land, - think of Cecil and Percy's most famous tune

              Neither. Weldon here is a fore-name...

                Is Percy G or F? and Cecil A-G? and did Manuel have an interesting shaped hat or just do it for Love?
