    I always thought it was nuages - fetes - sirenes in that order?

          Why so? It may be nothing to do with fetes at all...

            This is the closest anyone's got - coupled with mercia correctly picking up the clue in my "Fair enough"

            Debussy's 'Fêtes' is the wrong Frenchman but very much the right period, feel, idea etc etc.
            "...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..."

                No - I'm sorry, I should have specified that 'Fêtes' is also not the right word... (It's the right number of letters, if that helps!)

                    No. The Finnish element has only been in existence for 15 years.

                      There is an F word in that area which is missing

                                He was Mexican. Ok, he probably spoke Spanish...

                                What about Victoria? Feria VI in Passione Domini. But any talk of magic and witchcraft would be denounced him...
