An 1880 piece named for these objects draws on its composer’s operetta The Queen’s Lace Handkerchief for the slow theme “C, F, E, D” that opens its introduction. A phenomenally popular Irish song named for one of these objects is the basis for the last of Heinrich Ernst’s Six Polyphonic (10[1])Studies (10[1])for solo violin. The best-known piano miniature (10[1])from the collection Woodland Sketches by Edward MacDowell is named for one of these (10[1])objects. (10[3])A Johann Strauss Junior (10[1])waltz is titled for [these (-5[1])objects] from the South.
