Right chap, RM! Bravo!

I think it may have been his future wife who won the prize.

Any ideas about Handel, finally?

Edit: Cross post - you got the Handel too RM

I like to keep this thread moving, RM - well done!

Would you B kind enough to arrange another puzzle, please?

A review of the collected Decca recordings, Cali

http://www.classical.net/music/recs/reviews/l/lon757747a.php

although apparently Decca Spain made some recording that are not included in this set

He died very young of accidental carbon monoxide poisoning and so falls into the same category as Guido Cantelli and Istvan Kertesz - they left enough recorded evidence to make us grieve for what might have been had they lived into full artistic maturity

apparently there's a dish called Eggs Berlioz but I doubt this is of any relevance to the question

[Resurrection Man]

Correct...it isn't! Neither are Eggs Benedict(e)
