    Quite!

    Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.
    Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
    Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices..."

          Prelude 12 Book II of CD. I did look there originally but stopped when I got to Fairie and went looking at the bottom of the Garden etc.

              So we have left the prélude to the end. Any takers?
              Well, thank the Lord, I got something right!

                Yes you did, Anna

                Fireworks to take us over the 500,000 views mark!

                Coleslaw: Debussy Prélude no 12 Feux d'artifice - it is a sparkling work, isn't It?

                GFH Music for the Royal Fireworks ("Over twelve thousand people, each paying 2/6 rushed for it [to see the rehearsal], caused a three-hour traffic jam of carriages after the main route to the area south of the river was closed due to the collapse of the central arch of newly built London Bridge").

                Stravinsky Feu d'artifice, which as Anna correctly said, was composed as a wedding present

                Golly gosh, does Anton get the G?

                          Luke Warm? Who he?

                          Wiki tells me that the personnel on Pet's recording runs like this : guitarists Vic Flick, Jimmy Page and Big Jim Sullivan, and also drummer Bobby Graham and the Breakaways vocal group.

                          Bobby Graham? He has a G word in his name
