        Your answers appear to be as confusing as the question

        Yes or no would have been clearer - so is Queen in the answer or not?

                  You are looking for an opera, a musical piece and a poem not necessarily in that order!!!
                  Musical piece

                    are these all going to be Queen's University, Belfast alumni ?

                    I've found a piece called Turbulence by Kasia Glowicka, born 1977, who has a PhD in computer music from Queen's

                    an opera about St Patrick ? - can't find one at the moment

                    "Thaw" - poem by Philip Larkin, sub-librarian at Queen's Belfast

                      Spot on as always mercs - the opera is by Raymond Warren who taught at Queens.

                      R you ready for the next puzzle?

                        Raymond Warren - opera - St Patrick (1979) - oops crossposted - I found that all on my own

                        I think it's the cluff question, he got Queen

                          on second thoughts, here's a question
                          connecting R

                          Frederick Dalberg, Anafesto Rossi, Robert Evett, and "a stupid get (git)"

                            Perhaps this could be anton's solo?

                                Oh blimey, foot in mouth (as it were) again. Most certainly not, anton - many apologies if that's what you thought

                                I was referring to your last puzzle, the abstruseness thereof
