wikipedia tells me that there was a composer called Peter Winter (1754-1825) who wrote something called "Interrupted Sacrifice" or Das unterbrochene Opferfest (opferest ??) - pretty obscure but it's all I can offer

however, this lady's filmed autobiography may well be connected

good lord Mr Flay, how did you think up this question ?

EDIT - I guess an irregular resolution would be an interrupted cadence

have the questions become more cryptic recently?

[Flay]

Good lord Mr Hercule, how did you think up this answer?

Absolutely correct on all three!

Interrupted Sacrifice, Melody and cadence.

Give that man a double serving of coleslaw! And may he give us a J please?

Luise Jaide seems to have sung at premieres of the two Wagner operas, but I can't establish a link with Antwerp.

yep, apparently the first Erda and Waltraute and for a year a principal at Vlaamse Opera

you have done more than enough to secure the K

Bravo both!

A 'K' to link:
- an opera composed by one of Ken Russell's subjects
- what sounds like a cheerful weather forecast
- the dedicatee of, among other works, 2 string quartets and 2 piano trios (all by different composers)

just to prove I'm thinking hard here, Delius was a Russell subject & his third opera was entitled Koanga - howzat?

[Northender]

Right composer, wrong opera.

Right composer, wrong opera.

I'll be back!

[amateur51]

There is a King in Irmelin

I said I'd be back

[Northender]

Still right composer, still wrong opera
It's the source of the opera that will help you on your way.
