    Then again, it is Beethoven related, however tenuous I'll admit. Difficult call, there, Michael. Hmmm. Anyone help me out of this dilemma? I'm off to bed, catch you all tomorrow.

      Well there you go. Thank you, Chris. The "X" is still open.

        Which according to the rules (if nobody replies within 24 hrs) is down to me. Damn. Sorrano, you had an "X" lined up, I believe?

          X= Seyfried, Ignaz (Xaver) von - composer, conductor, teacher, writer on music.

            I didn't expect my X to be taken seriously. Beethoven and the X Factor do not mix. So I'll move on to the Y:

            "Yo no Quiero Embarcarme" (I Do Not Wish to Embark) woO 158a (23 Songs of Various Nationalities)

              Missed it, rats! That's what I get for sleeping at night.

                (It's here on the internet so it must be true.)

                I'd thought of using that, but I like your application better than mine.

                  Can't you still put it in? I've just realised that Peter's one might not be validated as it's a first name (but better than my effort)
                  I certainly can't find a valid X. Roehre got in nicely with Symphony X but even that is stretching.
                  You might save your one for Round 3!

                    Yes, I will save mine for round 3. Hopefully, that part will not occur while I am sleeping, again.

                      Z = Johan Nepomuk Zizius, Beethoven's lawyer in the case against Artaria regarding their pirate edition of opus 29.
