We are looking for five musical compositions linked by a common word.
Nothing to do with gardens, clocks or bells.

I'm off on my weekly peregrination to Durham, so won't be able to post any more tonight...
Sorry! I'll try to check your progress out at lunchtime tomorrow.

I can't think of a Handel Pan - certainly not Semele.

How about something to do with locations?

Bernstein - Trouble in Tahiti
Handel - Arianna in Creta
Vaughan Williams - Sinfonia Antartica
Grainger - Faroe Island Dance

or is it a link to another composer? I wonder because of Merikanto's Lemminkäinen Op.10.

Nothing quite so worldly, IGI, but there is a literary connection . . .
