      Is it Johann? No probably not. Ooh, custard! Not had a decent bowl of custard for ages .... There is a song Jelly and Custard from Oliver. Bleak House, the Jellebys. Oh, I have no idea

            The J is part of the name of two of the composers and a work by the other.

                    ... is the word links significant?

                    Might we, fr'instance, be talking joins - joints - junctions - junctures ??

                      Hmm; Anna's Joseph fits the bill (Haydn, Holbrooke & Beethoven's Cantata on the Death of Emporer Joseph) - I think a little extra hint might be useful?

                        I'm not sure what that means, cloughie. Is the J part of the name of a work by the other, or is it a work by the other?
