The instrument defined in #8971 was a Compass Rose, which was the name of the corvette in Nicholas Monsaratt's book.
Robert Donat also featured on a recording of Rawsthorne's settings of T S Eliot's 'Practical Cats'.
An S at your convenience, please!

thanks for the extra information. Donat's 39 Steps is a favourite of mine. I was interested to read that Donat had wanted to be Sikes in Lean's Oliver Twist, there must be many other examples of missed film castings. My dad gave me The Cruel Sea to read as a boy, but I never got around to it .
an S to connect
Gypsy Airs, The Red-Headed League and A Scottish Fantasy

OK - I think it's Sarasate, who composed 'Zigeunerweisen', and to whom the Scottish Fantasy is dedicated. Holmes plays a piece by Sarasate in 'The Red-Headed League'. Have to go!
