    I like the use of ff, by the way
    Never one to keep quiet, then ferney?

    Checked out fflur - sounds good - her development will be interesting to follow - although showing early signs of vibrato.

        Very, very excited about going to see him conduct Siegfried this coming Saturday, though!

          Still not sure who 'she' is here? Flagstad?
          What has she done to offend you?

                Looks like you think you might have?

                A Somerset Rhapsody, Cotswold Symphony; nothing specifically to do with Tewkesbury discovered here yet though, following your hint!

                      I will not be pushed, filed, stamped, indexed, briefed, debriefed or numbered. My life is my own.

                      I am not a number, I am a free man.

                        Hmm, we'll see...

                        Please find me an H to bring together:

                        Puccini's chrysanthemum, Mellinäs' mum, and Schumann's children.

                          That's what I thought for a while, ts, but they're quite a friendly bunch once you've joined in the fun (even when I dropped a clanger thinking Rigoletto was the duke!).

                            Nobody has dropped more clangers than I have done. My most used emoticon is

                            But let's hope they never drop the Clangers!

                            Please do drop in and have a go, ts.

                              Here we go with a Flay clanger already, Pulcie! I don't want you all flailing around the internet

                              Puccini's Chrysanthemum is not the quartet fragment

                                No sad face needed, Flay.
                                Indeed Chrysanthemum is not the quartet fragment: that's (plural) Chrysanthemums (Crisantemi)!
                                So not a clanger at all!
