[Anastasius]

Probably not The Dandelion Symphony by Ragnhildur Gísladóttir

AA takes us to the extremes

No, I'm afraid not. I'll be intrigued to listen to this although I may not last long as my classical tastes are more traditional.

[Pulcinella]

William Billings has written a tune called Chesterfield, but that doesn't seem relevant.


I'll need to lounge more on my own sofa to see if further inspiration strikes.

[Flay]

but that doesn't seem relevant.

Nor does Davenport Blues

[Anastasius]

I applaud your divining of upholstered music but the upholstered route is a bit of a red herring. You need to think of another name for a type of couch and then identify another relevant definition for that name that has nothing at all to do with seating. Instead this definition will lead you on to one of the four movements clued here. These four movements form a work composed by R

There...I've given it away now

The Incas of Peru = south American

The Flowers = Flowers

The Savages = Wild

... which wd seem to fit with -

"South American seeks large couch for wild flowers."

So do I - and a brilliant answer it is!
