That postman must be built like a brick shit-house by now.  ;D

Geographically (Harry may dispel the myth) but we are all led to believe Holland is a 'Flat' Country, Flat in the sense of not many up hill climbs?  Good for the Postmen & women and the deliverers of such large parcels  ;D

Pink Harp - Debussy and Pelleas et Melisande.

Saul - Saul

"Meet Miss Ruth Sherwood, from Columbus, Ohio, the Middle of the Universe!"

The biggest connection I think of is this one:

Beethoven - Todd

though Mendelssohn - Saul is up there too.  ;D

Kullervo

You see, I wouldn't know that - I never visit the thread where non-classical gets discussed. I avoid it because no one wants to be burdened with my deep love of the music of Tori Amos and Kate Bush. ;D

Wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow... unbelievable.

Kullervo

Copland -> Karl

Massenet -> Hector

Boulez -> James

Bach -> Don

Mahler -> Renfield

Siegfried Wagner -> Harry

Stenhammer -> Sarge

Almost any obscure 20th C. symphonist -> Dundonnell

Vaughan Williams -> sound67

How coud I forget this one:

Luke - Janacek

D Minor got there first;  it's obvious!  How did we leave that low-hanging fruit for someone whose ID is a key signature!  ;D

Novi

Hey, don't forget:

Bruckner - Lilas Pastia

Anybody baroque - Masolino
Durch alle Töne tönet
Im bunten Erdentraum
Ein leiser Ton gezogen
Für den der heimlich lauschet.

I was quite pleased I slipped under the radar for as long as I did. It's no fun being so pigeonhole-able! BTW, there are other composers I'd happily be associated with too....

(LaMonte Young not necessarily one of them, Karl!  ;D )

Did you hear her last one? Worth every second of the 12 years we had to wait for it:
