And three clues from us ( you can find the links here): 214 was as mentioned composed by one of a family of symphonists - the said family, although active in Germany, seem to have originated a little further east. 221 is a Rondeau as opposed to a Ron Dough from the last of its composer's four books of pièces de clavecin and members suspecting a punning connection to David Cronenberg for the composer's name should be encouraged to pursue it. 225 is played here by its composer. It is a notated work! Is 221 the Rondeau from Ordre 25 of F. Couperin's Pieces de Clavecin (Book 4)? |

It is not that but we are delighted to see a Member taking the plunge! We thought there were more devotees of the clavecinistes in these parts...

We can only presume the assembled Members are now pursuing gainful employment. So two more clues perhaps for our two remaining eligible snippets!
221 is not by one of the best-known clavecinistes we think but by a very late contributor to the genre, born even after CPE Bach and CW Gluck. It has nonetheless been recorded more than a few times so is hardly obscure - we have at least three recordings by different players. Don't forget our dreadful pun!
225 is by a very prolific English composer of the present day who has written a prodigious amount for piano, much of it extremely virtuosic.

A clue to Puzzle 235:
The work went down a storm when performed at the EIF (more than two decades ago) by the trio who jointly composed it, one of who was made ONZM in 2005 in recognition of his services to music.

Your 225 link just flashes and splutters at me Ollie - probably because I block virtually everything in Firefox, so very little will load properly  I'll guess  or  |

I hereby do declare with confidence that Puzzle 221 is this... Jacques Duphly - Rondeau 'La Pothoüin' from Book 4 of his Pieces de Clavecin.
(Now you can please explain the pun?) Baz |

Member Iron is clearly unacquainted with David Cronenberg's cinematic work The Phly?
We did say it was a dreadful pun. We hoped nonetheless that Members wondering whether to ransack their holdings of for example Couperin Couperin Forqueray Forqueray or Duphly might thereby have been prompted on brief perusal of a list of Cronenberg's works to choose the fifth-named of these.
Nonetheless La Pothouïn it was and is. Well done Member Iron! Please collect your points from Member Grew's office.

211 - Schumann's Marchenbilder For Viola And Piano?
At last! Strike! Go on IGI, celebrate! Mr 1780 Hurrah! It took a while, but we got there in the end. I don't know a lot of Schumann - the op.73 Fantasiestücke, of course, but not the Märchenbilder, which I think also exist in clarinet arrangements? |

A wild stab at 225 - is it Michael Finnissy's 'The History of Photography in Sound' |

I'm so delighted to have got this right - despite knowing nothing whatsoever of Cronenberg (which I thought you had spelt incorrectly for the drink). As for those flies, Mr Iron had just better give them a careful stroke or two to save further embarrassment... |
