Or even Ionesco...

So:

Anna's Law:

1. Riccardo's dad:

In 1982, Luciano Chailly collaborated with Eugène Ionesco, setting to music his "anti- comedy" La Cantratice Calva (The Bald Prima Donna).

2. The composer and timpanist: Wiki.Fr tells us that

Dominique Probst est un compositeur et percussionniste français né à Paris en 1954....

Brother of Jean-Claude Casadesus, rather a good conductor.

Anyway - Probst wrote 'Maximilien Kolbe' in 1988 to an unpublished libretto by Ionesco.

EDIT:

And

3. The Thoughts: there's a Detroit-based band called Thoughts of Ionseco http://www.amazon.co.uk/For-Detroit-...9&sr=8-1-spell

Which J unites the Comédie Française with Christmas and the Ondes Martenot?

André Jolivet became the musical director of the Comédie Française in 1945, a post he held until 1959. He wrote for the ondes martenot, e.g., Concerto for Ondes Martenot and orchestra (1947) and Pastorales de Noël, for flute, bassoon, and harp (1943)

You might say that ... I couldn't possibly comment

I'm doing a Northender and counting backwards...

Ahem... well done, Wilson, I wondered how long it would take you to spot that...

Well, there's Lulu and the Killers ...Beethoven's 'Eroica' features on the soundtrack of 'The Killers', and Martin Rohde's on the track of a killer...but I'm sure it's not that straightforward. And - I'm guessing here - at least one person gets killed in Berg's 'Lulu'.
EDIT: Lulu kills and is killed, yes?
