··IG: #blubarb19For extra credit, when you’ve figured this one out, tell us what’s significant about the answer…
Now this is going to be a tricky one.
Door handle /lock/key hole = Handel
Jerusalem Israel/dome/brass/flag = Israel.
Golf ball/ cup/ball in = in
Pyramid/Gize/Memphis/Egypt =. Egypt
Less known Handel composition: Israel in Egypt
Answer: Handel's Israel in Egypt
As for signifcance, I read this on the interwebby:
"... it was selected by Col. George Gourand, Thomas Edison's foreign sales agent, for the first musical recording. Gourand made his recording in London's Crystal Palace, using Edison's yellow paraffin cylinder - candle wax, essentially."

Maybe shoulda oughtta have allowed someone else to take a crack at that. But I waffled a bit, because I thought it was up to a Canuck to answer it, as a matter of national pride.
