    Hercule as ever was!
    "...the isle is full of noises,
    Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.
    Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
    Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices..."

      One G for three. There is a strong Wigmore connection: one loud, the other hopefully not so, but both performed the third's, although I doubt if ever together

              You may well say that, I couldn't possibly comment about future possibilities as to editing

                Perhaps there isn't on the BBC, but Fenland Airwaves' Corrie Caulfield (a splendid newsreader and contributor to Downham Market's News Quiz would be very upset to hear that she is "no-one"!

                    Oh mercia, You are so kind, but, having been away and tricky family situations to sort - well, you will just have to manage without me! This puzzle seems straightforward, does it not? Wigmore Hall and all that?

                      This is intriguing, Flay. I'm working along the lines of "Gretchen Forte (soprano) and Gretchen Hoffnung (piano) performing Gretchen am Spinnrade" sort-of thing?

                        Indeed, I think it's simple, the perfect antidote to the recent complicated conundrums.

                          Very interesting, ferney, but not, as they say, what I had in mind. Three people.

                            brilliant, that HAS to be the correct answer

                              again. I ought to have said the third's

                              I'll correct the original. I don't want to cause confusion - that's not my way...
