Thanks Il Grande  I have your Quiz 3 answers, which are to the expected standard  but Ollie asked for it to be left open till he came back. A few other entries have been good and may come back again with more. Meanwhile have you listened to the voices in Quiz 4 ? |

Something to do with founding orchestras/ instrumental groups? Mendelssohn founded the orchestra which became the Leipzig Gewandhaus; Iván Fischer founded the Budapest Festival Orchestra; Cage founded a percussion orchestra for which he wrote his First Construction (In Metal) in 1939; during the 1930s, Prokofiev, along with Tomasi, Milhaud, Honegger and Poulenc, founded “Triton,” a contemporary music group in Paris.

Hmm; Leonora? Spinning?
Where's my seven-volume life and works of Raff gone?

IGI,
Nope.
I'll are if I can think up a clue that does not give it away too easily.
Sorry I was away so long - had a few things come up.
