    Good for you, make sure you clean up after yourself.

    Nothing to do with the answer, btw.

    Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.
    Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
    Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices..."

      Well at least you could show interest in why I thoght it was!

      Gogol Suite [Suite from 'The Census List'] (1980)




      Gogol died screaming, Diagheliv died laughing, but Ravel died gradually. That is the worst. - Igor Stravinsky

          Ah! You've been there, too, I see.

                  I put that as a PS to my post but then deleted it in case people thought it was a clue!!!

                    Fair enough!! But rest assured we are always interested in how your mind works! The wrong answers are often so much more interesting than the right ones!

                      Well solved Cloughie! An hour ago I was Googling Evelyn Glennie in case she came from Glasgow - then I saw a reference to her collaborating in the music for the Olympics. I got side-tracked watching the opening ceremony on the iplayer (it's still available)... http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode...emony_no_comm/

                        So for the 'Tesco's Finest' Coleslaw:

                        "Gesualdo" (1993) by Alfred Schnittke.

                        "The Prince Of Venosa" (1998) by Scott Glasgow.

                        "Monumentum pro Gesualdo" (1960) by Igor Stravinsky
                        *

                        I was going to add Hummel as another misdirection: not Johan Nepomuk but "Gesualdo" (1998) by Franz Hummel. But I thought that was too cruel... It would have been a clue had you needed it....


                        *Ammy, that 'memorial' title is why your reference to the "canon in memory of" was a little above being totally cold...

                        Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments

                            Cornish weather may play a part here methinks...

                              I've not had the time to look in here for a while but looked at the last few connections. We seem to have raised the ante! I struggle to follow even when the answer has been given !!!

                                Hi Rezza. Yes there have been some tortuous ones lately... hence Ammy's plea for occasional simplicity! I'm going to try and set a few easy ones... if I ever solve a puzzle (I seem to always take them off the hands of others who've got the answer but haven't got time to set the next one. Call me a goal poacher. Or an ambulance chaser... Call me what you like, in fact... See if I care!! )
