    Ay, but I got nothing before that and nothing after. AA, in common with telling my right hand from my left, a thing my brain cannot easily cope with!
    It isn't given us to know those rare moments when people are wide open and the lightest touch can wither or heal. A moment too late and we can never reach them any more in this world.

      Yes, FF's Virgil was inspired.

      Here goes...

      What C links:
      Bach's addictive non-opera with Bernier's, along with a Mozart canon, and (if only briefly mentioned) a Beastie Boys' interstellar song.

        Coffee? Bach Coffee Cantata, Beastie Boys Coffee and Cream.

          Coffee is spot on.
          You're nearly there - Bernier & a Mozart canon to go...

          (BTW I'd found Intergalactic, "I like my sugar with coffee and cream". But, I bow to your BB knowledge ).

            It was that line from 'Intergalactic' that made me think I was on the right track.

                Francois Bernier discusses coffee imports from Turkey in his 'Travels In The Mogul Empire'. I've found some Mozart canons with very rude texts, but no coffee as yet!

                  Bernier was a French composer...
                  Hermann Prey (& a young choir) did a version of the Mozart... hope I don't have to spell it out.

                      There's a version of on the C-A-F-F-E-E Kanon on YouTube with Hermann Prey & the Tölzer Knabenchor (an earworm at the moment).

                      Just Bernier to go...

                          Well done LMcD - the baton passes on. Looking forward to the D-lights to come.

                              Would a Modestly Byronic "Destruction of Sennacherib" fit?

                                ... I suspect it's a modest prelude he's after.
