Not linked to death nor variations under another name, I'm afraid.

The Bridge isn't this by any chance?

Quote
The Hag, for baritone and orchestra (H.14, 1902)
   To words of Herrick ("The Hag is astride this night for the ride...").

Not that I seriously think it might be, I just wanted to mention it.

Vaughan Williams - Sea Symphony
Rachmaninov - The Sea and Seagulls (Op.39)
Richard Strauss - The Castle by the Sea
Frank Bridge - The Sea

Or is that too simple for the fiendish IGI?  Huh

It's not the sea, Anty, but it is a simple common word link.

Very good work, pw. I was nowhere near to solving that one.

Try these four composers:

Vaughan Williams
Rachmaninov
Richard Strauss
Bridge


Vaughan Williams - Fantasia on a theme of Thomas Tallis
Rachmaninov - Fantasie (Tableaux) Op 5
Richard Strauss - Fantasie from "Die Frau Ohne Schatten"
Bridge - Phantasie Quartet

Huh??

Baziron

A clever answer, Baz, but not correct in this instance.

A rather long shot, but:

Vaughan Williams - Five Variants of Dives and Lazarus
Rachmaninov - The Raising of Lazarus (from Fourteen Songs)
Strauss - ?
Bridge - All things that we clasp (Text by Emma Lazarus, after Heine)

The two Nazarenes in Salome discuss Lazarus being raised from the dead.

Not too long a shot for His Fiendishness, perhaps?
