No, no numerical connection. I'll add a bonus composer:

Ligeti
Gluck
Purcell
Stravinsky

No Stravinsky metamorphosis, Tommo, largely because that's not the link!!!

I'll give you another composer...

Cage
Ligeti
Gluck
Purcell
Stravinsky
Mussorgsky

...and then I'll have a look at your quartet!  Cheesy
