        To maintain the momentum, I'll assume that my Rutter is correct and proceed ...

          Over to you *

          Course the same clue would do for P for Pussycat if you're feeling really lazy... (EDIT: which I see you're not! You're in a hurry, tiger...! )

              Come along now, come along - I thought someone would have polished this off by now (a good clue there )

              I'm off to the Royal Academy around 11:45 til 19:00 I'd say.

                Back as promised

                To recap: what P connects Elgar, the York Mountain Winery Zinfandel, and Malcuzynski?

                Extra clue 1: i though you'd have polished this off by now

                Extra Clue 2: a work by Elgar that follows on from Extra clue 1

                Extra clue 3: Malcuzynski's nationality will inform extra clue 1. He had a famous teacher.

                Let's be having you!

                                He took his grapes to York Mountain Winery seemingly rather than to hospital as us lesser mortals do.....
