Zennlinsky and Nielsenn are no match for Henning.
Haven't heard or seen a note of Pekka Hannikainen's (1854-1924) music.

nor in competing for the favor of wayward friends.

I was going to start a poll on composers with 4 A's in their last names. Then I realised that maybe Rautavaara is the only one?

Do what I must do, and let what must happen happen.

Not even he (I make that 5 0:) )

Franco Mannino, perhaps, as he's one I have recordings of (a violin concerto and one for 3 violins (on Melodiya 562297 LP, for the curious).  You didn't say only four "a"'s so Rautavaara is correct there.
Peter Mennin or Kurt Kennan, Jannequin, Clément or Lindpaintner, Peter Joseph von are other choices.   While scrolling through my database I did notice the composer with three 'v''s in his surname.
