My spelling is a bit of embrassment.

Yes! I wondered if Pizzetti would be the giveaway. The Fauré are his Cinq Mélodies 'de Venise'.

This should be reasonably easy:

Arthur Sullivan
Oliver Knussen
Masabumi Kikuchi
Yury Grigor'yevich Ter-Osipov

Could this be to do with settings of children's stories or rhymes?

Sullivan - The Grand Duke (of York?) or The Sorceror (Sorceror's Apprentice)?
Ter-Osipov - Vinni Pukh (Winnie the Pooh)
Knussen - Where the Wild Things Are
Kikuchi - Huh

Not quite... but one of the works is correct (and I'm not telling you which one!)

There's Hums and Songs of Winnie the Pooh by Knussen but I don't know about the other two.

Looks good, Tony. Sullivan died way before Winnie the Pooh was written, however, so any link must be purely coincidental. Did he write anything about a donkey or an owl, perhaps?

We're not looking for a work by Sullivan. It's something from within a work by him...
I don't want to give you anything else (yet) because it'll be obvious when you think of it (I hope).

So it's Pooh!

Knussen - Hums and Songs of Winnie the Pooh
Kikuchi is known as 'Pooh' - Masabumi "Pooh" Kikuchi
Ter-Osipov - Vinni Pukh (Winnie the Pooh)
Sullivan - presumably Pooh-Bah from The Mikado
