And the subtitle of the symphony is......?

Question primarily to Anton.
I never understood the origin of 'coleslaw', which used to be the expression used to explain the answers.
Perhaps he could enlighten us?

Jeremiah

[Pulcinella]

Jeremiah

Indeed!

Albert Roussel: The poem of the forest
RVW: A Sea Symphony
Bernstein: Jeremiah

All names given to the respective first symphonies, Symphony 1 (hence One).

I think Aunt Daisy and LMcD can share the palm and decide who goes next (and how: I suppose we migrate to having a P).

Hope Nick is satisfactorily unstumped and Anton keeps contributing.

I have a 'P' ready, if that's OK with everyone?

[AuntDaisy]

'Prophecy' is the first movement of his symphony. No. 1

Well done LMcD I'd never have got that.

Thanks Pulcinella, that's brightened up a gloomy, rainy day (and been a welcome break from work).

[Pulcinella]

I don't imagine that AuntDaisy will object!

[AuntDaisy]

Go ahead LMcD - I'll have a "P" please Bob.

[LMcD]

OK, here we go (oh, and thanks for resurrecting the game!)
A 'P' to link:
- a composer born in 1678
- a conductor born in 1924, and
- an instrumentalist born in 1962

A droll reference to Anna's request that at the end of a solving session, someone (setter or solver) draw the elements together so we floundering souls can see the solution at a glance. Hence "Anna's Law" .... or AL... or coleslaw... or potato salad... or other droll elaborations!!

I'm struggling. Vivaldi & Marriner? Bit tenuous, but Red & Zadok?

Concentrate on Vivaldi !

Gosh I was racking my brains but couldn’t remember for the life of me the derivation, and was hoping Anton would come along and put me out of my misery…

… but there you are: thanks! Eleven years was enough to have wiped that particular memory disc

Generally unstumped (for now…). I always forget that A Sea Symphony was RVW’s No. 1

PS: I miss Anna….

Conductor Georges Prêtre?

[vinteuil]

the rev Richd: Coles

[AuntDaisy]

the rev Richd: Coles

That would make sense. (I was trying to find some heavy metal band member, Judas...)

Georg Ratzinger?

[LMcD]

Conductor Georges Prêtre?

Yes
