Good point well made ..... -
Sanchez and Ray correct but the other conductor is a connection with an orchestra.Originally posted by Caliban View Post
Just bumping the question as an aide-mémoire...
Ray Davies wrote a song called Victoria for the Kinks... and there are conductors sharing the first name Victoria called Bond, Ely, Sanchez, Gau and Pilley
Any good to you, Cloughie?Comment

Not sure what to do here, as I can't make any further headway, cloughie is absent and others don't seem any further forward than me.
So all we have is a partial plate of coleslaw, in that V is Victoria and 2/3 elements were Ray Davies's Victoria, and Victoria Sanchez the conductor...
Edit: ah yes! Yannick N-Z is element 3 then with the Victoria Symphony.
Let us press on with the W...
...the W which unites ten of the same (including a Romanesque and a Gothic), a Carnaval and a Scottish Suite.Last edited by Nick Armstrong; 09-06-16, 22:21."...the isle is full of noises,

I think that we thought that you had cracked it, and we were just waiting for the full solution to be revealed.Originally posted by Caliban View Post

Clue: the original title of the last-referenced piece is Suite Écossaise...Originally posted by Caliban View Post"...the isle is full of noises,

Are the ten a collection of buildings (cathedrals, say) or novels (sadly, Walter Scott's Waverley novels do not seem to fit the bill, even if I could find other associations!)?Comment
