Acquire?

Well done, Acquire is also right.
As in amass & collect.

Three homophones - A Quire / A Choir / Acquire.

The R baton passes on to Tapiola...

[Tapiola]

Thank you. Great follow-up clues, AuntDaisy!

I do have a quick and dirty (and hastily assembled) 3-part R:

Elementally, James Dean and a champion Alsation.

Only the first clue is directly musical.

They were all pretty Rebellious characters?

Jean-Féry Rebel composed Les Elemens, Dean was a rebel without a cause, and Rebel the German Shepherd dog and Champion were joint TV stars in Champion the Wonder Horse.

superb ff

[french frank]

Right, for S, three not wholly different composers:

1) famously began with a lionisation

2) not in fact an Englishman, sir!

3) more of a publicist, but he knocked out a cantata or two.

[Tapiola]

Ooh... I have an inkling, but cannot nail down the 3rd element. I am getting the word "saint":

1) Saint-Saens begins his Carnival of the Animals with the lions

2) Joseph Bologne - Chevalier de Saint-Georges

3) ?

Good going. I put the most obvious one first and the least last so that you would have a clue to work on. ('Nother clue: I'd never 'eard of 'im)

long shot

Monsieur de Sainte-Colombe

N-n-no, but if I'd found him first ... He is a Sainte rather than a Saint. The one I had in mind is a bit later.

[vinteuil]

I don't think Saint-Just would have, but just possibly did Saint-Evremond write any music as well as writing about it??
