Just to get the ball rolling, is there a Handel link anywhere here?

Finnissy - Molly-House
Markevicth - Variations, fugue and envoi on a theme by Handel
Beethoven - Variations on a theme of Handel

 Huh

I'm afraid none of those are matches, pw and RD

We're looking for a (polyglot) word link. The word has several (closely related) meanings.

Hurrah! It was looking through Markevitch's works list that I spotted a potential connection. The only work of his I know is L'Envol d'Icare, which should be better known. I think I've seen that Naxos are reissuing discs originally on the Marco Polo label.

Oh nuts. I was looking for a word that meant different things in different languages, not a word that was present in different pieces in different languages.
Well done IGI.

OK, something much simpler.

Find an opera by Tchaikovsky, a dance by Berlioz, a section from an orchestral work by Richard Strauss, a symphony by Beethoven and a legendary scene set by Weber and Schoenberg to identify the mystery work.

Is the Berlioz the Danses des Sylphs from The Damnation of Faust, and the Weber the Wolf Glen's scene from Freischutz?

Berlioz - right work, wrong dance: and a partial yes to the Weber - right scene, but more detail needed!

Berlioz - Menuet des Follets?
Weber - the forging of the magic bullets?
