    I was working silently on Lenya earlier. Nothing!
    Who was Lotte's old man and what did he write?

      Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.
      Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
      Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices..."

              I think we all have.

              The Roman Spring of Mrs. Stone - "Karen Stone (Vivien Leigh), an actress, and her businessman husband are off on holiday to Rome. On the plane, her husband suffers a fatal heart attack. Karen decides to stay in Italy and rent a luxury apartment in Rome. The Contessa Magda Terribili-Gonzales (Lotte Lenya) soon introduces her to a young Italian man, Paolo (Warren Beatty). Karen and Paolo embark on a passionate affair, with disastrous consequences."

                        "Love Life"... a 1948 musical by Kurt Weill

                        Mick and Keith had tempestuous ones.

                        Some of that goes on in the Welsh Marches.

                        Solved!!

                            The Marches run from North to South Wales, so anything West of them covers a large area. The Welsh being a musical Nation there are hymns and arias aplenty. Welsh Counties had their names changed in 1996, which further complicates matters. Is this musical Welsh offering of the classical variety?
