Grainger: Handel in the Strand (Has anyone ever heard or played that piece, which seems to crop up in R30k games endlessly?)

To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under heaven.
A time to weep, and a time to laugh: a time to mourn, and a time to dance

Lady_DHS, do the names have to be strictly as they are on the Monopoly board (which could make it impossible to get very far) or can we ignore words like "Street" and "Road" if necessary?
If so, I'll offer RVW's Oxford Elegy;
Handel's Water Music;
Ibert's Ballad of Reading Jail.
(If anybody finds one for Free Parking I'll eat my hat. Or my dog, or my iron...)

I certainly haven't and hope I can look forward to many more happy years of not hearing it. |

I'll follow with "Knocked them in the Old Kent Road" but I don't know who wrote it!
IIRC it was Albert Chevalier - or maybe he just sang it. I certainly associate that name with the song, anyway. Lerner & Loewe - MayFair Lady I'll get me coat. |

Which I'll trump with Eric Coates's Oxford Street. (He'll also provide Mayfair twice, once as another movement from his London Again Suite, and then in the title of his Meadow to Mayfair Suite). |

Well done, Ron!
I gather there's a song by Babyshambles called Pentonville.

There's the pianist Eric Parkin. Don't know whether he's free though.  |

It's not in the title, but the main theme of John Ireland's A London Overture is a recreation of the clippies' call of "...'Dilly, Piccadilly'" as their buses reached the terminus there....

There must be plenty of 'Angels' in all sorts of music but the only 'The Angel' I can think of is by Bruce Springsteen - unless we allow a literal translation of the title of one of the Wesendonck Lieder. 'The Angel Islington' might well prove impossible. |

There's a Satie piano piece called La Piccadilly! |

Well, yes. No, I hadn't read the previous page. On the other hand Waterworks does add a tiny snippet to the previous. Anyway. Yes. Bed. |
