"Lullabye (Goodnight My Angel)" might have a further word in brackets - ("Berceuse")?
I think the answer is probably "York". York Bowen composed a "Berceuse" and Joel "New York State of Mind".
Yes Bowen and Berceuse
Yes New York State of Mind
so what's the final piece from the smoking scatter gun, link to York

Z Or A - Your choice
One of my very favourite music websites tells me "In 1988, Gerry Mulligan composed a piece for the Glasgow Festival called "Flying Scotsman" : not a unique musical title, as we shall see"..........."The first railway film with its own soundtrack was the British one "The Flying Scotsman" (1929) its music being credited to Idris Lewis and John Reynders, two obscure musical figures if there were any"............"Sidney Torch (composer of the "London Transport Suite"), was reckoned a very fine theatre organist and some time ago I heard a record of him playing on the organ a cheerful number entitled "Flying Scotsman", complete with atmospheric engine sounds supplied by the organ. This was not, as I at first thought, one of Torch's own compositions but was an arrangement of a piece by the Scots born accordionist and light music composer of the period 1930-1960, George Scott-Wood".
Not a lot of people know that.Last edited by Lat-Literal; 11-12-16, 23:21.

Maybe I was just too used to the recording I have.
Probably too busy (appropriately perhaps getting ready for my move to York) to solve the other two clues, but I hope to monitor activity from the sidelines in my coffee breaks!

Good luck with the move.
