    The three occurences of it are in two cases in a composition and the other in a composer.

      I'm not playing in this round, but that rules out my initial thoughts of Interlude or Intermezzo, unless there is a composer unbeknownst to me!


      Flay has posted on another thread recently, btw.

              No

              Think of composers with M forenames who wrote music with Ivan in the title.

                  Give the man a coconut - yes, now the next is from a film composer of Hungarian origin.

                    Is The Maid of Pskov aka Ivan the Terrible relevant?

                    Particularly if written by Mikolai Rimsky-Korsakov?

                          Yes

                          Now that leaves a different style for the final clue - the M is a work, the Ivan is part of the name of the composer.

                            SULL, Ivan - Mikado? (Macbeth, Merchant of Venice, Masque at Kenilworth, Martyr of Antioch??)

                              If not Sull, Ivan how about Ippolitov-Ivanov's world-famous Op.69...?

                              Musical Paintings from Uzbekistan - Orchestral Suite No. 5 (1935*)

                              Or perhaps his Op.54...?

                              Mtsyri, symphonic poem for soprano and orchestra. [Hell's bells, I actually own an LP version of that! But without any soprano. Cheapskate USSR Melodiya or what?]]

                                Op54 is correct and I have the very same recording on ASD2640, a good listen. How is pronounced - a vowel shortage at the beginning.

                                Now for a J but from whom. Contributors to solution were Anton, LMP and Sub. On balance maybe LMP?
