      - a Full House, subby (I need only add that John Milton the composer was the father of the poet with the same name, who also did quite well for himself. )

      Would you like to ... NO! Enough Benny Hillisms:

      A perplexing puzzle, if you please.

        One P each by Peter, John, and Antonio were varied by Jan (and in the third case also by Samuel).

            No. We are in the same era as the previous question.

              So Sweelinck and Scheidt might be involved?

                But not necessarily dead princesses?

                      A load of the second possibly?

                        I believe we're talking about Pavans:

                        John Dowland - Lachrimae Pavan
                        Peter Philips - the Pavan Pagett from the Fitzwilliam Virginal Book - which Jan Pieters Sweelinck used as the theme of his Pavan Philippi
                        Antonio de Cabazon - Pavan Hispaniola - also used as the basis of sets of variations by Jan Pieters Sweelink and Samuel Scheidt.


                        ... though looking at the way the alphabet goes, I rather hope I'm wrong!

                          Spot on. Sweelinck also wrote a variant of Lachrimae Pavan.

                          So you are next in the Queue unless you want to run past.

                            Ho que (a straightforward one this time):

                            A Q to link Rameau, Campra, and Saint-Saens.
