              What J is common to all three:

              one Witold
              one Maurice
              one Claude


              and I'd be surprised if that is not solved in a flash.

                  Odd isn't it: as I was putting it together I thought, this is far too easy for rubbernecker, and of course it was.

                  Now you have the K

                    I suppose I'd have made it more cryptic, like "Love 40 in a Venetian fountain" and weathered the groans and opprobrium which would have ensued.

                    K on its way...

                        No - just abuse!

                        ****!!!



                        All recent questions have defeated me in quick visits during a rather busy week. Roll on that weekend
                        "...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..."

                            For K you're looking for two brothers, sons of a police officer, the elder was championed by Toscanini during the war, while the younger was up all night, 24 times.

                              I think this would be the Kalinnikovs

                              Vasily with his !st Symphony conducted by Toscanini 1943
                              and Viktor with his 24 sacred choral settings for the All-Night Vigil

                              not a groan in sight

                                What a splendidly tolerant and understanding person you are, Mercia, not to mention a peerless puzzle solver.
