                Full House!

                To sum up:

                Queen:

                The Freddie Mercury band (A Night at the Opera)
                The Queen of Sheba (Handel and Goldmark)
                The Queen of Spades (Tchaikovsky's opera, Pique Dame in French)

                all honours to the indefatigable cloughie - and a fiendish R to follow, please ...

                      They are indeed all classical musical - bet you're surprised by that.

                          Hot Feet made me think of The Red Shoes - anything to do with ballet I wonder?
                          Thought not,

                            people gather in crowds but for some reason angels always appear in [heavenly] hosts ?????

                            Delius hills ??? Hot feet made me think of George Melly, but that ain't classical

                            is R a composer ? should any of them H words be translated into a foreign lingo ?

                                nothing to do with the late Mr Melly.

                                R is a composer, and the other words refer to compositions.

                                No translation required but maybe a Thesaurus could be useful.
