Tchaikovsky Swan Lake

the Respighi is further afield than Rome.
Brazilian Impressions?  Undecided

Oo look, Respighi wrote a Sleeping Beauty as well. Anything there? Tchaikovsky did one, Stravinsky orchestrated it... Liszt? Hm.

Well done, Ollie!

Not linked to birds though, pw. The link isn't in the works' titles. Have an extra composer:

Respighi - Brazilian Impressions
Stravinsky
Liszt
Tchaikovsky
Berlioz

Which I suppose means either the Berlioz is Harold in Italy or the Tchaikovsky is the Manfred Symphony?

(Or that one of the pieces is called Janine? Wink)

I think an extra composer is in order:

Respighi - Brazilian Impressions
Stravinsky
Liszt
Tchaikovsky - Manfred Symphony
Berlioz
Rachmaninov

Remember, not a common word link in the titles, but a musical connection.  Wink

Deviation. And repetition. And not enough hesitation.
