    Wolfgang Amadeus's 36th symphony
    Bruckner's first version of his first
    Richard Tauber (Old Chelsea operetta)'s birthplace

                that is indeed the tragic gallop but not on this occasion my M word (which ams has correctly hit upon)

                Maddie short for ........... ?

                  Cortot & Souzay performing Mirages by Fauré

                  Gerard Souzay sings "Nocturne Jardin" from Faure's MIRAGES


                  Madeleine Grey premiered Mirages with Fauré at the joanna

                  I suspect that the Cortot isn't what you want

                    the Cortot thing is pretty obscure, though I think cloughie is onto it

                      I shall put an end to this and hand over to ammie if I may

                      The Tragic Gallop, La Tragique Chevauchée, based on the Mazeppa legend, dedicated to Cortot, the second of two pieces, Mirages opus 70 by Florent Schmitt

                      the Faure opus 113
                      and William Alwyn Song Cycle

                        Nice puzzle mercs and a very generous approach - Cortot was an amazing bloke and I didn't know about his being inspirational too. I'll check that Naxos disc out certainly - the things you learn on here

                        OK

                        An N to connect a load of balls, a horse and a French suite

                            I see what you're driving at cloughie - this suite is not musical, however - I should have mentioned that but you might have got it too quickly if I had
