Tommo. You're a Thicko. You get £-5 for being so. Pay me when you see me.

Crouch is merely one of the subs I have lined up.

A Scouse friend of mine said about Peter Crouch, 'He looks like someone set fire to his face and then tried to put it out with a hammer'.  Cheesy

I was just being silly, marts.  I sort of guessed Crouch would have nothing to do with it.

And no I know that Mengeleberg's "No Idea" has nothing to do with it either.

I'll buy you a pint with your £5 Wink

Well, if it's thematic?  Are we talking Carolingian?

Vaughan Williams was related to Charles Darwin
Charrles Mackerras conducted a lot of Haydn
Misha Mengelberg must have played some Charles Mingus
William Lowe was involved with King Charles
MacDowell wrote the Ballard of Charles the Bold

Anty x 267 sheep loins entrussed to a John Dory fillet

Marty x I always am tasteful, but do I want to discuss sheep loins entrussed to some South of France Fish!  Who is probably no better than he should be.  John Dory who masqueredes as St. Pierre?

I must consult my Catholic Dictionery about fish.  I may be some time  Cheesy

Probably wide of the mark, but could it be elemental, dear martle?

Vaughan Williams - The Old 100th Psalm ("All people that on earth do dwell")
Haydn - Symphony No.59 in A major, 'Fire'
William Lawes - An Aire from one of his consorts?
MacDowell - To a Water Lily

John Dory who masqueredes as St. Pierre?

I must consult my Catholic Dictionery about fish.  I may be some time  Cheesy

Just consult me.  A John Dory is a Saint Pierre in French.  It has dark marks on its sides behind the gills, which if I remember Jane Grigson, are supposed to represent the thumb and finger marks of Saint Peter when he picked up a fish to present it to Christ.

hh cooked one successfully recently.

Tomorrow is St Peter and St Paul's Day, and a public holiday in Rome.

Back to martle's teaser...

Just in case you want to know.

Probably wide of the mark Martle, but can the thematic connection be Improvisation?

William Lawes – introduced the improvisatory basso continuo into England
Haydn – invented the String Quartet medium, thereby dispensing with the basso continuo
Vaughan Williams – Suite de Ballet: Improvisation (Andante)
Edward Macdowell – Improvisation, Op. 46 no. 4
Misha Mengelberg – Jazz-piano improviser

Nice idea, Baz, but no. IGI's 'thematic' stab was more the sort of thing we're looking for here. There are in fact FOUR categories, just like IGI's 'elements'. So, my fifth composer (MacDowell) doubles up on one that was already there...  Wink

Could it just be Seasonal then?...

Edward MacDowell  - In Autumn, op. 51 no. 4 from Woodland Sketches
Vaughan Williams - Three Children's Songs for A Spring Festival
Haydn -  The Seasons
William Lawes - Now that the spring hath fill’d our veins
Misha Mengelberg - Change of Season: The Music of Herbie Nichols (1984)

Not that, Baz. The original four composers represented one each of the four 'things' that are thematically linked. The Mengelberg is a musical work.

One more composer...

Vaughan Williams
Haydn
Misha Mengelberg
William Lawes
MacDowell

Marty,

These four elements are baffling, if it’s not the seasons or zodiacal,  is it 24 hours i.e., dawn, dusk, mid day, midnight?

Bingham:  At the mid night
Haydn:  Midi
Vaughan Williams:  In the days dusk
Lawes:  And when the dawn
Mengelberg: Improv Night   Cheesy  Cheesy

Well at least I get points for ingenuity and imagination?
