I wondered about Anna?

LvB's Op10 #1 in c minor is dedicated to Anna Margarete von Broune
Haydn wrote a set of Piano Trios dedicated to Maria Anna (the wife of Anton Esterhazy)
Sibelius' Karelia Suite contains a movement with two highly esteemed Forumistas in the title (Anna Mercia)
And all Weber's concertante works are for a Soloist anna orchestra.

Off to bed now after a long and busy week. If alla is correct, I'll set a B's knees tomorrow morning. Or somebody else can now and I'll join in later. Or if I'm wrong.
Or we can just chat until we feel like a new puzzle.

Night Night, all.
