Off the top of my head, I'm thinking 'morning'?
Ravel: Le matin d'un jour de fête from Images
Elgar: Chanson du matin
Johann Strauss II: Morgenblätter
Bax: Morning Song
Poulenc: this one has defeated me unless it's Aubade, which has to do with the morning
Haydn: Symphony no. 6 Le matin
Grieg: Morgenstemning from Peer Gynt

I only just found that on Grove. Don't know that cycle at all. It's funny how sometimes just one name (in this case Grieg) suddenly can inspire a train of thought like that. |

I suppose the Matin responsaries for Tenebrae might be a bit tenuous (or tenebrous?)?

 Well done, hh! I did have Poulenc's Aubade ('Morning song) in my selection, as well as Ravel's Alborada del gracioso (which is sometimes known as 'The Jester’s morning song'), but the final movement of ' Images' will do nicely. I wondered if Grieg's name might cause a few pennies to drop...  |

And I was convinced you were onto it straight away, martle... Good morrow, your fiendishness. Theme or common word link this time?
