                Total coleslaw will have to wait until this evening but if memory serves I had everything but the Holst...

                Jeffrey T first principal conductor of ECO
                Lodger opera by Phyllis T
                Nathan T libretto for Purcell's D and A
                And is there some Holst tie in to the Tate?

                  very good. Maggie Teyte (born Tate) created the role of Princess in Holst's The Perfect Fool (says wikipedia)

                        Is Usher.

                        I knew Debussy: Pelléas et Mélisande being based on Poe's Fall of the House of Usher, I knew Peter Hammill (of Van der Graaf generator fame) had released an album with the same title. Wiki tells me that the opening of the Usher Hall in Edinburgh featured a work Land of the Mountain and the Flood by one Hamish MacCunn. I have no idea what the periodic table has to do with all this!
