Really? I thought he was a universally loved sort of cheeky chappie? Are you saying there was a very dark side to him? (Incidentally, I love Wilson Keppel & Betty!)

It's a me-thing, Anna possibly even a family-thing. I could never see the funny side of him and when my mother was first ill we were chatting and it emerged that she found Askey to be spooky, for roughly the reasons I have described. It could be something to do with the fact that he looked like my mother's father ... and there the trail ends, I'm afraid

The cathedral was the venue in one of them. A hall, the venue for another and a theatre for the third.

Not the performers....maybe an aspect of the performance is relevant.

And we're looking at a spread of dates from the 1890's to the 1950's.

And two of the performances were at music festivals.

I thang-yooo!

[mercia]

so I want three pieces of music premiered at those three locations and [three?] composers of those works share a name which is J

wikipedia not very forthcoming as to Norwich premieres, only Moeran in their list has a J middle name

wiki says Sibelius's Luonnotar was premiered at the 1913 Three Choirs

Your underlying logic is correct...just that you have made one wrong assumption in your logic...without wanting to give too much away.
