I haven't got a New one to put in - anyone else want a go?
Here's a quickie: an N to link Rossini, Fauré and Saint-Saens. (Nota bene: no ******* around with teasing Christian names )

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

Saint-Saëns - Oratorio de Noël Opus 12
Rossini - La Nuit De Noël
Fauré - Noël Opus 43 No. 1
Well well well.... I suspect you're not wrong about all that. But it's not what's on the card...
Noël is 7 letters shorter than the answer on the card
Have another go, Monsieur Flay

I love Google translate (from the French Wiki page):

My guess is that it's Mrs Flay who has got the gloves on & Mr Flay is taking it out on us
Mrs Flay figured in my earlier post, but I deleted her as what I had written was, I felt, slightly ungentlemanly!
But tha' may not be wrong!!
