The only other R I can come up with is Richault, but that's a mad google. Sorry.

Had me going then....Originally posted by ferneyhoughgeliebte View PostI'm out at a concert all day tomorrow (courtesy Flay #27750)
I've got a quick B ... I won't be here for 2 or 3 hours now to stir the pot, but at least it keeps things on the simmer
This B links Sweden with Los Angeles and Paris's Latin Quarter
"...the isle is full of noises,
Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.
Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices..."

Well I'm glad I inspired ferney to an productive away-day

Jussi Björling (a Swede) and Victoria de los Angeles sang in Sir Thomas Beecham's recording of Puccini's La bohème set in Paris
So is it Beecham, bohème or Björling

100% correct in all particulars!Originally posted by amateur51 View PostJussi Björling (a Swede) and Victoria de los Angeles sang in Sir Thomas Beecham's recording of Puccini's La bohème set in Paris
Originally posted by amateur51 View PostSo is it Beecham, bohème or Björling I hadn't thought of that!!
It was Björling on the card.... he was the Swede... but you are right...
.... so it is thrice your C, and make mine a treble, Entwistle!!

What C wrote an opera set in a town made famous by Bizet and van Gogh, based on a play written by someone who wrote letters from his windmill; but had greater success with an opera based on the life of a French actress, latterly with La Stupenda; and chummied up to the original Fascist for artistic purposes?
