Welcome to the Musical Connections thread, Robert.  Smiley

Good try, but not a seasonal connection, much as we'd like to look forward to Spring!

Nothing linked to a particular instrument, Tommo. I'll add another:

Prokofiev
Respighi
Glazunov
Stravinsky
Ippolitov-Ivanov

No, Daniel, bit it is a person who links them rather than a work or theme.  Wink

Diaghilev was linked to works by a few in the list (La Boutique Fantasque, Firebird, Chout) but he's not the person you're after. I'll add Liadov (who was originally commissioned to write The Firebird, I believe):

Prokofiev
Respighi
Glazunov
Stravinsky
Ippolitov-Ivanov
Liadov
