Well I had said:

Things could not get any lower.

But then SubcontraBass piped in, so I was wrong!

Monday brings a Call for a C to Connect Ink & Mechanics with a railroad.

... and Aida?

Yes apart from being on the wrong continent

Crumbs; Ive got one this quickly?!

Sadly, I've got a very busy week ahead, so can't devote the time to setting and monitoring a puzzle (I'll do one towards the weekend if people are stuck). Sorry to be so half-horned about this (and I may be wrong: "Ink" is proving elusive).

No you are right with Crumb and Ives, Ink is in the title of a ballet that contains the word (twice!) that hopefully, at some stage, someone will be prepared to divulge

(I'm stuck at the computer doing some translating some texts of mine - it's not something I enjoy, barely being able to string a good sentence together at the best of times. )

I am trying to reach for the stars with this one. Is the word ink in another language?

No, the composer is American, of Armenian descent & it's easy to find on e.g. naxos online

I must be thick.

We have:
George Crumb Celestial Mechanics
Ives The Celestial Country - that doesn't fit??

But I cannot find anything inky for Alan Hovhaness. He had plenty of Celestial happenings: Celestial Fantasy, Hymn to a Celestial Musician, Symphony No. 6 ["Celestial Gate"], Celestial Canticle

No I have it: Hovhaness - Apparition of a Celestial City from The Spirit of Ink

I've got it now: Ives The Celestial Railroad.

As simple as that!

Bringing up the rear is such a thankless task Flay, but well done Ferney said he was rather busy so your diligence has been rewarded......

[Flay]

your Diligence

That's not what I would call it...

Where would Langgaard and Norgard be with Aho?

[Flay]

This is not necessarily an exact place...

Nice try but my D is less ethereal.
