Looking good, IGI! That had me floundering all over the shop with Scottish stuff; but surely you've nailed it?!

Sorry I had to take nearly 7 hours break there......
Yes indeed, Seven. And you didn't even need Elmer Bernstein!

Took a quick detour and got the anagram, but cryptic clues are not a strength...out of practice, I fear. I used to do the Telegraph cryptic crossword and, with practice, got used to the setter's 'style', but couldn't sit down and do one now!

Is Martinu the odd one out because his Francesca is a man (Piero della Francesca) and bears no relation to the Dante story in the other works?
