or will it.......?

And let's not get into what an Oaten might be....

That's a cracker!

Meanwhile, the V

Anyone getting anywhere with it?

Which Hepburn ? Katherine or Audrey?
Which Artur ? Rubinstein or Schnabel?

[mercia]

Which Hepburn ? Katherine or Audrey?
Which Artur ? Rubinstein or Schnabel?

Audrey and Rubinstein

[amateur51]

Audrey and Rubinstein

Does Audrey Hepburn's singing voice being dubbed in the fillum of 'My Fair Lady' constitute a 'failure'?

Or am I barking up the wrong hornbeam?

[mercia]

on this occasion I'm afraid you're barking

this particular early film of hers was a box-office failure, obviously not helped by V's music

beg pardon, not actually all that early (1959)

[mercia]

what V musically connects

- a Hepburn failure
- Artur & the baby's family
- Shrove Tuesday food

V is a composer of music for:
an Audrey Hepburn 1959 box-office failure
a piece premiered by Rubinstein translated as "The Baby's Family" (!)
an early piece called .......... well whatever one might eat on Shrove Tuesday
V is much better known for other works

I didn't pitch this question very well - sorry

Greetings from Barking ....

Well according to imdb, one of Ms Hepburn's 1959 fillums was Green Mansions with music composed by .... Bronislau Kaper

The other was The Nun's Story with music composed ... by Franz Waxman

Vere are ve Vs ven you vant vem, daaar-link?

[mercia]

Green Mansions with music composed by .... Bronislau Kaper

well all I can say is that imdb needs a bit of updating because V was the more important composer for Green Mansions

try wikipedia !

Yes, Green Mansions. Sorry to be helping mercia along with the clues but everyone ...... look at the title very clearly! (Mercia, if I am out of order then forgive me and I promise never to follow you to bed again)

[mercia]

I promise never to follow you to bed again

that's ok

as long as you put the cat out first and remember to turn off the bathroom light

A-ha!

Wiki says it was Heitor Villa-Lobos as well!

Edit: HV-L also composed Prolo de bebe premiered by Rubinstein

Edit 2: HVL also composed an early piece called Panqueca (Pancakes)

[mercia]

Heitor Villa-Lobos

hooooooooraaaaaay



the W is yours, sorry for the hard work

[Angle]

Great stuff, Am.
And Mercia - don't apologise It was a good puzzle through most of which I slept, having got out of bed far too early in the day

Can we expect a W from Am ?
