        Could it be Rachmaninov?

        Rachmaninov arranged three pieces from the third violin partita of J. S. Bach

        Rhapsody on a theme of Paganini

        Not sure about the Beethoven link yet

            Welsh Co-Op got stonking offer on Montepulciano d'Abruzzo DOC, 2010 vintage. £3.49 a bottle. Extremely toothsome.

                    Remember to avoid any 2011's.

                      Looking triffic, Calibano - does it carry a fair whack of the alcohol? I do love Italian reds that have been around a while.

                      How was your pizza, Anna?

                      The famous Welsh pizza is named pizza dwygyfylchi after the famous tale of the headless horseman of Dwygyfylchi, just south of the A55 at Penmaenmawr

                        No. The "R" is the first name.

                          13.5%.... Quite a punch. A moderate glass and a half this afternoon had some effect! I'd currently be having a siesta had I not been going out... Instead I settled for a stiff espresso; and another one coming up before I scuttle off

                            Clue time? Bach is the odd one out.

                              Roger Norrington? Period instruments? He did a series of Beethoven Symphonies (sponsored by Logica)...
