Sorry, no! Oh, if we can't laugh at that, can we laugh at William Matthias: Fanfare?

Yes, indeed, Mr Watson. An inspired answer which should certainly 'set the ball rolling' for the other two snatches in the trilogy!

367 is Prokofiev - The Monologue of the Summer Fairy from the 2nd Cinderella Suite.
Correct on both counts. I was rather hoping 366 would last a bit longer as it's not often included on CDs of that music. It's the casting of the spells.

Sorry, no! Oh, if we can't laugh at that, can we laugh at William Matthias: Fanfare? While I rejoice at solving puzzle 352, I'm afraid you must despair, Mr Garnett, as you are sadly mistaken this time.

Mr. Watson's puzzle 365 comes from Dr. Williams's Aristophanic suite The Wasps does not it?

Our previous answer is entirely wrong; Mr. Watson's puzzle 365 definitely comes from Dukas's La Péri!
