I am constantly amazed (though I suppose I shouldn't be) that the range of musical knowledge of Mr Watson, and he is not the only one, overlaps hardly at all with mine. As I keep saying, so much music, so little time.
Some clues for my own three outstanding Puzzles:
282 is from an orchestral piece with two soloists, neither of whom are heard in this excerpt.
283 is from the early stages of a symphony to which a chorus is added later on.
286 is by a composer whose surname not only suggests a nationality other than the one he has, but actually something quite other than music altogether.

If you really are in the same groove today IGI, what about ... Vivaldi: Violin Concerto In D Major, Op. 8 No. 11 (RV 210)? Baz |

Sorry, but no - a different groove entirely, Mr Iron!  |

Mr Watson, 289 would be The Foresters, incidental music by Arthur Sullivan based on a play written by Alfred Tennyson.
The good news is you're correct on this one, Mr Inquistor. But the bad news is you're wrong about 291. |

291 would appear to be an English setting of the Te Deum, which certainly does feature in The Apostles. Could it be his Te Deum laudamus, Op.34, No.1, as it does sound so Elgarian?

Sorry, but no - a different groove entirely, Mr Iron! Since 288 cannot possibly be such a 'different groove', let's try this one then... Vivaldi - Concerto in D major for Violin, strings and basso continuo ('Il Grosso Mogul') RV208 Baz |

Right and wrong again, Mr I! It is an English setting of the Te Deum but it's not Elgar. |

Now we're clutching at straws....George Dyson's Te Deum And Benedictus In F for 291?

Not Dyson. I don't think I'm allowed to give a clue for ten hours but I can respond to an attempted answer, I suppose. I realize there must be many settings of the Te Deum, but I think you know me well enough by now, Mr IGI. |

I don't know Mr Watson as well as Mr Inquisitor, but I'm going to have a frantic unchivalrous stab before retiring behind the arras: is it Sullivan's Festival Te Deum? I don't know all that many tediums, having sung more evensongs than morning services.

Correct, Mr Harmony! Sullivan set the Te Deum twice, the second time being in commemoration of the Boer War, but this was the earlier, Festival, one. |
