        ["Progress"] - well, there is the 2010 Michael Nyman film Progress, and the Rowlandson print Progress of Gallantry...

        But I see that Portsmouth trumps...

            RVW "Sea Pictures"
            ???

            ... should be Sea Songs, of course! (The Pictures were that other English chap!)

            So, another set of Sea Songs, an trio of impoverished sailors and an infantile introduction should lead to which Q?

                      "Songs of the Sea" Opus 1 (originally four songs (1901 version), revised version 1911 three songs)
                      "Three Poor Mariners" - either a song from "The Arnold Book of Old Songs" (arr Quilter) or a Piano Trio with the same title
                      "A Children's Overture" Opus 17

                                First two correct. I cannot see anything about George Russell that relates to Wagner.
