The Poing connection isn't a piece but an ensemble - she wrote the piece Die Kreuzung for them. Or at least that's what their repertoire list says...

No idea about your last one yet though...  Undecided

Anyone else? (if you can get just a few of them, I'll be impressed)

Ian, just wrapped the wet towel round my head...

In the meantime, one for you! (Not too hard, or rather, not cryptic!)

Bliss
Poulenc
Skryabin
Auber

Well it's wrong then. That piece was actually written for a Japanese ensemble and its original scoring was for saxophone, sho and contrabass, though it was later revised with accordion instead of sho.

*sighs* - I was pursuing a red herring, thinking of Scriabin's 'Poeme fantastique', Bliss's 'Valses fantastiques', then wondering if there were some obscure arias/ songs by Auber/Poulenc with 'fantastique' in the title? But IGI went for the kill before I saw the light (or rather, the darkness).

Anyhow, IGI, maybe you can crack my other one?

It was a bit of a relief after the cryptic conundrums we've faced today! Initially, with Bliss (Colour Symphony) and Skryabin (synesthesia) I was thinking of other colours, but Auber was the giveaway.

Oh, I'm trying, but am unsure which of the Lehar operettas are the unpublished ones?!
Is the Giacinto Scelsi the one we need the Italian for?

OK, since you're all taking your time Wink . A few clues.

When searching out the Lehar, bear in mind the answer to one of my previous puzzles.
Scelsi is not the one we need the Italian for (the particular reference I'm thinking of is in French).

Now all should be clear?  Grin

By the way, I have to wait until someone comes up with a complete list of pieces before I can say whether they are on the right track or not - or else it would probably give it away.
