Ferneyhough – Prometheus
Tchaikovsky – Mazeppa
Debussy – Préludes

I had volunteered Ophelia Dances before, along with Tchaikovsky's Hamlet as a possible Shakespearean connection, but that received nul points!

If you like, you can add Rolf Harris to the list.... Wink

And IGI, I thought you we're going to get this one quickly when you said "I'll take a look" at it....

Tommo asked for for some messages to be removed, but I decided to save some to his new facial hair topic, and, well, the rest of the messages were a laugh. Darn, I lost my whippersnapper message  Sad

Thanks John - didn't want to sidetrack this great thread.

By he way, for the record - the connection was indeed beards.

So, who is going to catch IGI out with a 'genuine' Musical Connection....
