OK. Results are in. 60 people took part this time - many thanks to all of you. As usual, some great answers. 3 questions, however, went unanswered; nobody knew (perhaps understandably!) of the Maya theatrical play Rabinal Achí, that Makobo Constance Modjadji VI was the last holder of the title Rain Queen, or that 'The Red Detachment of Women' was the name of the Chinese ballet watched by Richard Nixon.
There were, as always, a number of solos:
44 - ABERDARE RANGE - Eric Wildsmith
105 - SALLY MANN - Lars Heggland
130 - LAKE ATITLAN - Gary Grant
135 - YUNGAY - David Stainer
143 - ADITI - Barry Simmons
169 - LACRIMAL BONE - Issa Schultz
Well done to all those with solos.
