Alphabet associations - I

[cloughie]

Only thing I've been able to come up, but not confident about, is:
Scarlatti was in the service of Infanta Maria Barbara, Ravel - Pavane for a Dead Infanta and Lutyens - The Birthday of the Infanta.

As noone else has got anything at all I think your choice is sound, no doubt scb will pronounce dreckly.

Three out of three. Over to you for a jubilee J.

That's really surprised me, I thought the answer was far too simple and straightforward for a subcontra puzzle!!

I'll be out from 9.30 for just over an hour, so here is something to ponder, although it's really easy:

This J is common to:
Schubert, Weber, Respighi and Bernstein

Jubilee?

Weber Jubel Ov
Bernstein Jubilee Games
Respighi Feste Romane Giubileo (Jubilee)
Jubilee SQ play Schubert

Jubilee?

OH, RATS!!! It is indeed, I knew it was simple but I had hoped it might cause at least 10 minutes of thinking!! Can you or anyone else list the four compositions please?
Edit: I see you have done so in your amended post.
The Schubert I have on the card is Cantata for Salieri's Jubilee.
So, over to you for a Kwik K it seems.
I should have stuck with my original J and not been swayed by subcontra saying Jubilee

I think it was chickens coming home to roost - you fed me the last J, a week or two ago by asking me to do a Jolly J - so I thought a Jubilee J was worth a punt.

Unfortunately I'm off out shortly so can I Kick the K over on someone else's 'ead please?

Oh, that's not fair - you can't be the only one playing and then do the mercia side-step!! Well, I have to go now as I said, for an hour, if no-one wants to volunteer a K I'll just make people suffer and post another J as punishment !!

Sorry to incur your wrath Anna, but I have things to do! By the way I didn't know mercia had patented the side-step, cali and others have done it and Anna has been known to also!

[Northender]

May I offer a question involving the letter K?

[Northender]

Here goes...
A suite for wind orchestra and a song dedicated to a tranny might lead you to a long-running general knowledge quiz.

Go for it Northender

I'll do some balloon-modelling as a distraction, then once you've got your puzzle up they'll have not a qualm

Go!

Nicely done, Northender - so that's 3 elements, beginning with K?

[Nick Armstrong]

Brilliant stuff this morning! I'm kicking myself about the I... how did I not think of Infante!? Nice one Anna And scb made short work of J... And now, spiffing to have a Northender puzzle I'm off for a little bit but hope to have a crack on my return in a little while!!

PS What's the significance of your avatar pic, Northender? I've been peering at it!

[Anna]

And welcome from me as well Northender. Please don't fret if answers are slow in coming along, Saturday morning plus a Jubilee weekend means folks are out and about. I've just had a look at your teaser, hmm, intriguing.

Correct! (Thank you for your various messages of welcome, by the way. The avatar was taken at a sculpture exhibition in Leicester).
