        Indeed.


        As easy as that!

        (But which particular three Os, if you really want the accolade? Last Sunday's order of service from St John's on The Choir thread will help!)

        Time to have a P.

            I'm not sure that they did much work, and you cracked the Noel, so I'm sure that they won't mind you taking the P!
            I really just wanted to get the ball rolling again.

            Yes: three of the seven Great O Antiphons, for this season of Advent!

                So you see now why giving the letter away was giving the answer too!

                                Are we looking for three Opus 1 compositions whose titles begin with P ? (e.g. Webern's Passacaglia)
