Thank you, MJ, for reviving a thread which I was afraid I had murdered unintentionally! I hope to see it now growing into maturity and perhaps even dotage.

No, I'm not a complete idiot. I'm only a halfwit. In fact I'm actually a catfish.

I think this has been mentioned before, if not by me then maybe Tony W: the portrait gallery music in Ruddigore (Sullivan, of course) is a minor key version of Onward Christian Soldiers.

Maybe it's less unfortunate if the same composer is responsible for both... !
And only seven notes of it.  It's not so bad if it's not an EXTENDED passage of similarity.

Ein süßer, heiliger Akkord von dir
Den Himmel beßrer Zeiten mir erschlossen,
Du holde Kunst, ich danke dir dafür!

When in doubt, wash.

Surely that would have been manslaughter then, not murder!   Grin

Merely corroborative detail, intended to give artistic verisimilitude to an otherwise bald and unconvincing narrative.

listening to Breakfast this morning, I was struck by how Smetana managed to incorporate "Two Lovely Brown Eyes" into "From Bohemia's Woods and Fields" in Ma Vlast.

When I first heard Prokofiev's First Violin Concerto it reminded me of the opening of An Americain Tail:

I loved this movie when I was young but now it looks (and sounds!) so strange: mice celebrating Hanukkah. Huh

Here's the Maurice Chevalier pigeon:

Sad to think that so many of the actors who starred in the Dutch version are not alive anymore. Cry
