              Cheers hodge. That's the second time you've been less than gracious in passing the baton on to me ... but I'll forgive you

              However I'm out very soon and all day at that so I'd be happy if someone else would take up the J.

              Thank you!

                Gosh! sorry if I caused offence - I certainly didn't mean to!

                    It's been quieter here than Fenwicks on a bank holiday...

                    I've had a couple of gos at this and got nowhere

                    It's presumably not one of the obvious Fantasies in C (e.g. Schubert: Fantasy in C major, Op. 17) as I've been unable to find any Czech connection.

                    Time for a clue, perchance?

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

                        Yes I meant to refer in my post (just amended) to the Schubert: Fantasy in C major, Op. 17

                        So there is some sort of Czech connection with that piece?

                        A performer?

                                Quite...

                                To confirm: is it the Piano Fantasy? Or is it for instance Schubert's Schubert: Fantasie in C major for violin and piano, D934?

                                That might lead us to Josef Suk....

                                The violinist would have played the above piece

                                His grandfather of the same name wrote A Winter's Tale, Shakespeare Overture for orchestra, Op. 9

                                What was the other bit of the question...?

                                "...the isle is full of noises,
                                Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.
