Iberia is not just a peninsula...

An airline?

Gould, stand up! I am fed up with you disrupting this class. You are rebellious, objectionable, idle, imbecilic, inefficient, antagonising, untidy, lunatic, albino, conceited, inflated, impertinent, underhand, lazy and smug.

You will stay for detention after school!

Sir...Sir...Please Sir...'Iberia' is a four-part musical composition by a Frenchman who once featured in a Ken Russell documentary. Can I have the gold star when you've finished with it, 'cos I'm well-behaved as well as maddeningly clever.

Northo, you are nothing but trouble. I don't know what you need young man but, whatever it is, this school has not got it. You are expelled for being a disturbing influence on the rest of the scholars.

The composer for my Iberia thingy did indeed come from Iberia.

Well I think this Toreador is waving a red rag rather aimlessly. I found out that Bill Whelan the composer of Riverdance also wrote a Seville suite. There is a Fete Dieu Seville or some such in Albeniz' Iberia but that is only in 4 parts so I couldn't understand the five fff's unless they were fandangos or flamenco or some such. The star I just had no idea about......

So I decided I really was up a creek without a paddle

Except then FHG comes along with Willian Baife a composer and singer who wiki mentions he sang in The barber of Seville which seems to lead to confirmation of my suspicion.

Nothing creaky about your answers so far. Bill Whelan did indeed write a Seville Suite.

And Albinez wrote this as part of the Iberia Suite:



El Corpus Christi en Sevilla. Rarely do we see the marking fffff ("plus fort encore si possible" )

And last night Ferney pretended to be baffled by Mr Balfe who wrote... ....?
