Britten, Gerhard ... and a misspelling that got us out of Europe in 2003.[FONT=Comic Sans MS][I][B]Numquam Satis![/B][/I][/FONT]Comment

Without going back to the original teaser, a quick check on Gerhard showed up what I think is the answer, and explains the 'double' connection, with the Britten being the piece he wrote for the twins Gabriel and Zoltan Jeney.Originally posted by ferneyhoughgeliebte View Post
No time to pursue as I'm off to an end of year school assembly to wish all the Year 6 students I've been working with well, and to say cheerio to the others.
Happy for others to crack on.Comment

Right then!
Noone else has risen to the challenge (or are you all just being polite?), so here goes.
G is for Gemini.
Stockhausen: Gemini is a movement in Tierkreis
Rameau: wrote an opera Gemini
Clayderman: Gemini is a movement in his Zodiacal Symphony
Britten: Gemini Variations
Gerhard: Gemini
No idea what happened in 2003, though!
Are we carrying on or taking a break?Comment

Nil points on this one, then?No idea what happened in 2003, though!
That's hentirely hup to you - but Rameau still needs a little "trimming".Are we carrying on or taking a break?

In my defence (: not my period), having twigged the answer from the Britten I simply googled 'rameau gemini' and got a hit that was titled 'Ensemble Pygmalion releases a new recording of Rameau's 'Gemini' opera', and that was enough for me, but of course I should have twigged that it referred to Castor and Pollux!
Anyway, here we go. I hope it's not too late in the day to set a new puzzle.
St Paul's or Westminster?; G, D, or A; or E, with a voluntary carillon?
Which H have they got in common?Comment

Three chaps, actually, Flay.Originally posted by Flay View Post
And, just for you, perhaps an apology, as it's music that you might not be very familiar with (though that's quite an assumption, and perhaps depends on whether or not you have rebelled against how the holy brothers might have influenced you at skool!).
PS: That's a convoluted construction of an apology. Trust all will be clear when the answer is revealed.
PPS: Slip corrected: there's only one holy father; you were subjected to the brothers, I think!Comment

Is a helpful hint needed?
It's not really the right time of day, at least for six of these seven pieces of music.Comment
