      (I know it's the name of a person but I had done all that research and it was a nice picture...

        "...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..."

          I assume being a Chairman of WNO [Tony Lewis] wouldn't count as being an impresario

                No. The person concerned only played (as far as I can make out) in one county match.
