      My first thought was Lehman(n) as in Brothers but I doubt that is right.

      Then I thought Landowska followed by Louvin.

      They are almost certainly wrong too.

      A Lehmann has performed Three Easy Pieces which is presumably Stravinsky's and not the album track by Buffalo Tom, Landowska has links to Stravinsky and has been discussed in connection with Picasso's blue period and the Louvins recorded a country song called "Blue". Ah, maybe it isn't Stravinsky in view of your comments which I have just spotted.

        Lat, If my guess is right, it might help to have been to Uni.
        I will not be pushed, filed, stamped, indexed, briefed, debriefed or numbered. My life is my own.

        I am not a number, I am a free man.

          Erm, law degree?

          I was starting to think Lloyd-Webbers.

          Or I suppose Danish could be some detective noir thing.

          "A bit of Homer" is probably "son" as in "Homer Simpson".

          Danish-something-son.

          How about Lars or Larsson?

          No.....I'm sure you are right.

            Not that cryptic - if indeed cryptic at all - 3 composers from one place one of whom is not Stravinsky but another Three Easy Pieces man

                              That rules out Brian Wilson and brothers from Hawthorne, LA then.

                              And probably Mingus.

                              It isn't Adams, is it?
