    Oh, I thought afternoons and a good F = Fauns !!
    Then (see the native cunning at work) afternoons = music while you work and Light Composers
    Then, I saw Flay's and was silenced

      It isn't, but why (out of interest)?

        Make more noise... I'm sure you'll hit the right note, knowing you!

          Probably not. I've been listening to the R3 Mahler 5, I feel bed is calling me shortly.
          I will chuck into the melting pot: Robert Farnon and his Portrait of a Flirt

            Just that Franz Schubert has pieces with all three items on show in the titles. I thought Anna's faunication in the afternoon far more interesting
            Pacta sunt servanda !!!

              That really made me
              I think, after his two lunches that Caliban has nodded off! Bless him. So, Nighty-night.

                Not so! But not Faun nor faunication nor Farnon nor flirt...

                Anyone want a clue?

                    No, no... just commenting that Anna would probably find the answer if she stuck around. Maybe not tomorrow...

                            Yes! I was going to say, where's our dear mercia? Back with a vengeance!

                            I know we've had "Licht" before at least once.... Not sure if it was Friday before, can you recall?

                              And yes Flay

                              So:

                              Stockhausen: "Friday" - the opera from the "Licht" cycle
                              Wagner: "Good Friday Music" (or other holy week alternatives - Zelenka "Responsories for Good Friday" for example )
                              Britten: "Friday Afternoons" song cycle

                              G up you two. Who wants it?
