Grainger - King Solomon’s Espousals (Solomon's Song of Songs?)
or Love Verses from the Song of Solomon, which seems to fit better!

Ollie, re your tricky quartet, could it be heroines more famous from other operas?
Morricone - Arabella Dusapin - Mimi Busoni - Turandot Czernowin – Zaide

It's a great answer! And in Dusapin's case it would also include Medea and Juliet(te). Ben trovato. There's another connection waiting to be found though.

As I failed in my bid for the Solti, which recording would you recommend? I hear the Boulez DG recording is supposed to be very good.
It is indeed, in almost all respects, though marred by Aron's extreme vibrato and Moses' not-very-German accent. (For me, Günter Reich makes a much better, certainly much older, Moses in Boulez' earlier recording.)

Very impressive, Ian!
The Czernowin connection needs another language.

Hmmm - you said you don't speak Hebrew (but didn't actually deny there might be a Hebrew word involved). French for fist is 'poing'. Will you let on which other language is involved?

Is there a piece by Czernowin called Poing? I looked for that, but didn't find one (and don't know of one). Anyhow, clever and wily setter Ollie, see if you can crack my last one!
