    Was that when you looked in the mirror just now?

        No, I think I recall it arose as part of vinrouge's fond imaginings as to the wildlife available in W2, on the Stormy Weather thread
        "...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..."

            That's not the M, cloughie.

            Think of a Catalan city - or rather THE Catalan city

              So is this a real or imaginary man from Barcelona?
              Whose fides were terribly bona etc

                Mompou is the only composer I can think of to link with Barcelona, but can't see any link that would point to him!

                      But are there likely to be three famous people, two of them real and musical, and one fictional from Barcelona, ALL called Mompou?!

                      Maybe it's not the family name that begins with M?
