Finding this very tantalising... Is the O a title of a work?

[vinteuil]

Finding this very tantalising...

yes; baffled - if it were goose rather than duck then I wd be exploring ocarinas and the oca di cairo [K422] and others..

It is an object (but in no way objectionable IMHO)

plated suggests (to me) gold but I don't think coq d'or has opened the proms

Plated to me suggested Orange with the duck but I don't think they've done Love of the Three Oranges on 1st Night either.

[mercia]

opened the proms

oops, misread the question - "prom opener" not "proms opener"

EDIT - Dimitri's Golden Age opened prom 49 of the 2006 season
Rimski's Coq d'Or opened prom 48 of the 1998 season

if only someone had composed a canard d'or!
