Makes me think of a name for a new drinking haunt - Der Rote Birtwistle?

So is Jezek Czech for 'hedgehog'?

Weir - Hans the Hedgehog?
Mahler - (a guess here) - a nickname?

Born in Kaliště, grew up in Jihlava, a city in the Czech Republic.... A very tricky one, Opilec!  |

After that thorny puzzler, I shall leave you with a reminder of mine: Couperin Stockhausen Chaminade Josef Strauss All in the titles, no puns, minimal/no translations needed..quite easy by the standards of the last few days, really!!  Night all. |

IGI - would I be right to think Commedia dell'Arte?

Well done! It was a little clowning around… Couperin - L'Arlequine Stockhausen - Der Kleine Harlekin Chaminade – Arlequine Josef Strauss - Harlekin-Polka Today’s teaser might require a little digging in places, but more composers are lined up to help! Verdi Schubert Poulenc Peterson-Berger |

As it's quiet on the Connections front, I'll offer you an extra composer!  Verdi Schubert Poulenc Peterson-Berger Messiaen Also, a second puzzle....spot the connection, but with this one you'll need to name the odd one out too: Tchaikovsky Saint-Saëns Stanford Mendelssohn Good luck! |

Hello Mark
I've been looking at this for a while. Are we looking for a mnemonic or similar (pace Pace)?

No mnemonics, acrostics or anything like that, Dan, no. In fact, a minimum of digging required... P.S. No, there isn't a feathered connection here. (Same with the second puzzle). All been a bit quiet here, but it's been 'entertaining' watching events at the other place. Am currently listening to the Wigmore concert I attended on Saturday....Elgar String Quartet at the moment...very good. |

Yes, a lot of upheavals and upset t'other place. They really seem to have ruined the community there.
Virgins seemed a possibility but Peterson-Berger doesn't fit.
How did you get a recording of that concert or was it broadcast on R3?
