NIET to both of you.
There's something we're looking for which appears in a different form in the music of each of these composers, maybe in a title, maybe not, maybe more tenuously. The team might need to be augmented at some point.

Not dreams, Anty. A hint - it's not a common word connection.

Yes, RB, the same notes forwards but played in reverse, my attempt at defining a 'mirror fugue'!!!

JS Bach
Tippett
Carter
Dowland
I was going to say something about guitars ( Syringa by Carter, and the songs for Achilles by Tippett) but I'm wondering whether 'tears' have anything to do with it or Orpheus. |

There's a Carter Double Concerto (Piano/Harpsichord) too, though the only double I can find for Dowland yet is the use of a double top string on his lute.....
