    so does the composers name start or end with a G.

      So, his pseudonym is his real name spelt backwards, and we're looking for a composer whose pseudonym ends with a G, who wrote a Preprandial Prayer, Roses are Falling on my Head and Taid's Smallholding (oo-er, missus).


      Shouldn't be too difficult.




      It's not Lulu is it?

                    Good on ya, Ammy!

                    Shall I draw the threads together?

                    A composer whose real name begins with G but he published a large part of his work under the inverted pseudonym.

                    *His pieces include: shower of roses, a prayer [at the early part of the day], and grandpa's dance [considered by The Oxford Companion to Music to be a kind of slower polka, with continental-European origin]....

                          "...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..."
