Don's record collection included a Bridge arrangement, a Handel aria, and a hit for another trumpeter.

Looking at this again, echoes was a little distant in its German translation. Anklänge is the word. Shall I spread the coleslaw on the paté and toast?

As Northo correctly said, the F-A-E Sonata for violin and piano was a collaboration by Schumann, Brahms, and Albert Dietrich written as a bit of fun for Joachim, whose motto was "Frei aber einsam" (free but lonely). Brahms's Scherzo is often heard.

Anklänge (Echoes) - from Six Songs op. 7, no. 3.
Gesang aus Fingal for female voices, 2 horns, and harp, Op.17

Crikey, that was a killer.... Amazing stuff from Norffs to solve that b*gger!

Is the other trumpeter Eddie Calvert?

**sounds of bells ringing, over-active klaxon, etc**

You'll only encourage them

[Northender]

Yes, the other trumpeter is indeed Eddie Calvert.

[mercia]

No - try clicking on the translation and it gives you alternatives...

oh yes so it does, silly me

Yes, the other trumpeter is indeed Eddie Calvert.

Eddie Calverty had a no.1 hit with Cherry Pink and Apple Blossom White


Frank Bridge wrote Cherry Ripe for string quartet

Handel wrote an aria Ruddier Than A Cherry

Well solved, Miss Marples (I can never work out if your avatar picture is her or Alec Guinness )

Cheers Flay!

It's the Magnificent Margaret Rutherford

I'm off out prontissimo, should be back by 16:30 so I'm afraid there will be a modest hiatus before the D is revealed

That was my original impression, but there is a likeness to Alec Guinness

I regard myself as being the AA equivalent of Alan Davies

when you're obviously the Stephen Fry

Very good, and the 'D' is clearly yours - but what about Don?

Darn you, Flay! I'd just uploaded that self-same pic in order to append a jovial post.

I presume this is a reference to the great Don Cherry?
I think I am having an ultra-blonde day but I honestly don't get where Fingal is in Brahms

Correct!
Don Cherry, our first trumpeter, may have included in his record collection:
Frank Bridge's arrangement of 'Cherry Ripe'
Handel's aria 'Ruddier Than The Cherry' and
Eddie Calvert's 'Cherry Pink and Apple Blossom White'.*
Over to Ammy for 'D'
* or Perez Prado's version, come to that.
