Still brewing the T. You like it strong, don't you cloughster?

Actually no - weak, no milk, no sugar - Earl or Lady G if available, please.

Redbush with just the tiniest smidgin of milk please.
Just been catching up ...the 'S' question led me to recall with a degree of fondness the good old days when people set dead straightforward questions about obscure orchestras based in Canadian provinces.

As my granny would have said: you'll have what you're given!!

A T to unite composers Gia Kancheli and that darling of setters of "I" puzzles, Mikhail Ippolitov-Ivanov, with a winner of the Schumann Piano Competition.

I've tried to return to an even earlier state of grace, involving almost complete simplicity

Turkish?

[Northender]

I-Ivanov composed a Turkish March and some Turkish Sketches. Kancheli dedicated a work to a Turkish cellist. Ozgur Aydin, a Turk, won the Schumann Piano Competition.

Nice work, but not what's on the card I'm afraid, Northo

Thank you, m'Lud. I shall now go and toast young Andy's success in some viticultural product.

All hit and miss on this board at the moment. The Tblisi thing I think is something like this

Whatsisname was a composer born there.
Ippolitiv-Ivanov was not, but ran an orchestra there
Some maid won the Schumann thingey and also won some competition in Tblisi.

How near's that for me to have to go through the thought processes to devise a U?
