Er, Gesange des Orients?
...was the Richard Strauss sitting patiently on the subs' bench. For Johann, you were looking for his Märchen aus dem Orient. Here's another quartet for you to try...one sub already added!  Josef Strauss Nielsen Britten Saint-Saëns Vaughan Williams |

Britten - did he do an Abraham?
Certainly did. One of the Canticles is Issac and Abraham, but not what we want here. The clue must by Josef Strauss. |

The clue must be Josef Strauss.
Not necessarily. Perhaps an extra composer may help... Josef Strauss Nielsen Britten Saint-Saëns Vaughan Williams Mussorgsky Kalevi Aho The VW is very well known, as is the Mussorgsky. I'll leave the most obvious candidate for now... |

No, but songs may well appear as some of the featured compositions, Don.
