Ok, while we're waiting for Jonathan to look in and sort us out, here's another to be getting on with. A thematic connection again, not a common word. I have a couple of subs at the ready.
Joseph Strauss Thomas Pitfield Malcolm Arnold Prokofiev

I was working on the 'size' theme. 'Grand', 'micro' and hence the suggestion of mignonne ('small/dainty/ickle'(?)). I've been googling most of the afternoon for 'Liszt's Six Medium-Sized Songs Without Words'. No luck so far.
Oooh, another one. Hmm, 'Green, always green'. Trees?
Arnold - Larch Trees
Pitfield - The Elm Spirit
Prokofiev - Love of Tree Oranges

Marty, It's not about methods of perambulation is it? Whitfield: Tramping Song Arnold: Colonel Bogeys March Strauss: Any one of his Galops or even a Trot? Prokofiev: Seven Songs and a March Thought not. Only killing time until my Goan red rice is cooked

Nothing doing, George and Anty. I didn't know June Whitfield wrote music! But, Anty, one of your other answers is... sort of,... close. (That's not a clue, just an encouragement!)

Nothing doing, George.
Not even if I come bounding up wagging my tail with Prokofiev's 'Gnarled Oaks' and lay that at your feet too, Martle?

Oh bother, Marty. A typo I didn't notice Sort of close? But which one? Well, got to love you and leave you for a while, my super-strength chillie has been bubbling away for a couple of hours, my mixture of Goan red and wild rice is cooked. A feast has been prepared Chez Antheil. By the way, tonight is a Waxing Gibbous Moon, (full moon is tomorrow) and we are promised -6 degrees. Hence the chillie. I am sure when I return George or IGI will have solved it.

Sorry, George. No. (I feel a slight twitch in the direction of the thumbscrews. ) Nothing remotely green about this connection. Good game, this, eh? Anty - sounds delicious. I shall myself be popping a fresh slab of moussaka in the oven before too long.

Good evening, Il Grande!
No. For those with eyes to see, I have already given a teeeeeny clue... And another clue, less useful, might be that I'm pretty sure we've had this 'theme' before; but certainly not with the same works/composers...
