    I have to go now. Shall I give an Anna's Law tie-up on the V and award the W to cloughie?

    Valhalla -

    Black Sabbath from their album Tyr
    As built by aforesaid giants Fasolt and Fafner
    Valhalla Rising - "The film takes place in 1000 AD and follows a Norse warrior named One-Eye and a boy named The Boy as they travel with a band of Christian Crusaders in pursuit of a Crusade. Instead, they find themselves in an unknown and unfamiliar land." "The film was shot entirely in Scotland"
    Pacta sunt servanda !!!

      After a tooth-drawing effort, I'm awarded the dreaded dubya - thanks Flay, I'll try not to disappoint!

      A W linked by a midnight strike, several reconstructions and sound-alike trombones.

          Speaking as a trombonist this has me intrigued and stymied in equal measure
          "...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..."

              The music has an interesting score.

                  No, despite the hour being appropriate.

                    Surely not Cinderella?

                    <doh> Ignore that - forgot to refresh so missed Calib's contribution. Great minds...

                        As discussed somewhere on t'Forum not too long ago, the trombone plays the 'Tuba Mirum' solo in Mozart's Wequ... er.. Requiem... - the last trump, sounding like a trombone... Anything to do with that? Can't fit in your 'interesting score' comment which sounded like a hint...

                        Mozart Req would fit the reconstruction thing too.

                            I'm wondering about Mussorgsky's Night on a Bald Mountain, with its associations with Walpurgisnicht, and its partial origins in an aborted opera called The Witch.
                            Midnight Bells - tick; several reconstructions - tick; similar-sounding trombones - err ...
