        needless to say not my subject

        David Nelson? Ricky Nelson? Matthew Nelson? Ken Nelson? Gunnar Nelson?
        male or female Nelson?
        Nelson first name? Nelson last name?

        EDIT - "Goodbye Heart" ?

          well that was interesting



          I thought it was interesting actually. Don't think we've had 'Gnossienne' before.

          Amazing work by Cloughs to winkle it out!

                      Not I; all I can get is Elgar's Sursum Corda, which ain't painful!

                        Nor way!

                        Actually Sursum Corda - there was a Chandos Elgar LP then CD Bournemouth Sinf Hurst - great!

                          Indeed... And then there is the alternative technique employed by mercs, peppering the question with 12-bore shot:

                          Nelson first name? Nelson last name?



                          Back home now and a bit of time - will try and deserve to set a question by polishing off H

                            Is that the answer then?! And what has Norway to do with the price of fish?!

                              Read the clues, Cali. Who's Ed the Norwegian?

                              The Sursum Corda bit was my appreciation of a good CD CHAN6544 or

                                So that'll be "Wounded Heart", the first of Eddie Grieg's Two Elegiac Melodies, for piano or string orchestra, Op.34
