I have no idea what I am saying. But, hello to all on this most estimable thread.
Perhaps I am obsessed with hair, or the lack of it, presently.
Not what I have on the card Or the cranium....
"...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..."
This conjures up a picture of Caliban looking a little like Confucious !
Re the question...I keep coming back to Harmonie (Harmony) but think it may be well off-beam.
No, RM, triumphantly on-beam Harmonie is the answer.
Vinrouge is right about the Adams element: the 'Meister Eckhart' movement in "Harmonielehre" (tiny typo there, vinmousseux )
He's half right too about the second element - can you improve? What was your thinking behind 'Harmonie' ?
All three elements are musical.

Harmony/harmonie was a real stab in the dark. I knew that Keppler had done a lot of work on planetary motion.....leading me to think about simple harmonic motion.....but Harmony is such a common word and tracking down a New York group was proving evasive. I wondered about Harmonia Mundi only to discover that they were French (apart from the German HM which has nothing at al to do with them...the things one learns while trying to solve these!). And as for Eckhart, a complete blank other than he talks about Harmony.
No musical references and so Harmony/Harmonie is nothing more than a lucky guess!
We are talking about some of the works of Bartolomeo Giuseppe Antonio Guarneri "del Gesù" (21 August 1698 – 17 October 1744), violin maker of Cremona.
Seymour John Grey "Sim" Egerton was the 4th Earl of Wilton. (I call on vindetable to provide suitable anecdotes and commentary ). He was a musician and worked with Arthur Sullivan, and owned the 1742 violin which became known as the 'Lord Wilton Guarnerius', later owned and played by Yehudi Menuhin.
Samuel Dushkin was Stravinsky's mate who collaborated with him on his violin writing - he owned a 1742 Guarnerius later played by Pinchas Zuckerman.
Last we have the 1731 Guarnerius owned by French violinist Henri Marteau (d. 1934) and more recently used by Maxim Vengerov.
I imagine mercia to be a-bed by this hour. I'm sure I'm right so may post an Haitch before long....
It has been noted by the Standards Committee that Brother Caliban has used the word 'played' in reference to Brother Menuhin and Brother Zukerman whereas Brother Vengerov has only 'used' his Guarnerius, apparently Would Brother Caliban care to clarify this distinction and at the same time re-assure the Committee that no deprecation of Brother Vengerov's artistry was implied on his part or intended by inference
Now, what's the third element, the musical Kepler reference?
"...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..."

I must get out more
Confirmed!!
