    Symphonie Espagnole = "Iberian symphony"
    Lawrencwe of Arabia main theme sounds similar to the Second subject of Lalo's 1st Piano Concerto*
    North of Cap Sizun is an island called Ys, a king of which was the subject of an opera by our Eddie.

    * = according to some; listening to it, I think Jarre looked after the material better than Lalo:
    Edouard Lalo Piano Concerto in F minor, 1. Movement I "Lento--Allegro"Marylene Dosse, PianoStuttgart Philharmonic OrchestraMatthias Kuntzsch


    ... go to the 2 min mark.

          Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices..."

            Stuttgart Philharmonic Orchestra conducted by Matthias Kuntzsch

                    Thank you!

                    Double muddle here - WIKI refers to Ys being "a town in the bay of Douarnenez", but following their own links there is only mention of the "mythical city". Dunno where I got the "Island" idea from!


                    But - moving on:

                    Denis, Benjamin and Amy: which M connects them?
