It seems no one knows puzzle 303, so it is time for another clue in relation to it. We already know that it was written in 1907 and that there is a strong connection with Coventry. Now we can add that its composer also wrote - much later, in 1941, in the face of national catastrophe under the Hitlerites - a famous symphonic poem for large orchestra and organ, From the Depths, full of muscular counterpoint.


303 - How about the Tone Poem Toman a lesní panna by Vitezslav Novak?

Better still - let's scrub that, and go for Novak's Lady Godiva (which fits your clues better!).

Not that one Mr. Baziron. Well we see you have rightly "scrubbed" it.

Good work that is the one! Novak's Overture Lady Godiva, the "Scottish atmosphere" of which was much praised by Czech commentators.

Time for a clue for my musically connected trio, 288, 306 and 313:

288 is not Vivaldi. 288 and 313 depict the same event.

Any takers for no.301? Clue: It's from almost the very end of the first movement of a piano concerto.
I don't know this but I'll flail in the direction of Carter's Piano Concerto [stumbles due to overflail and falls flat on face]

No, that's not it. It's one of three piano concertos by this composer.

That's correct, hh. Indeed the two soloists make no sound at all most of the time.

Oh! Oh! Oh!
282 is Stockhausen's Inori init!

Sorry it is neither of those. It is if we are not mistaken much better known than either!
