Trying to think of the name of the classical piece, sounds like two cats miaowing to each other - can anyone help? The Opera Babes sung it at Leeds Castle a couple of years ago. Thanks all.

it's called the cat duet & I believe the music was written by Rossini. Hinge & Bracket used to include this piece in their repertoire (hangs head for knowing that!)

This piece is attributed to Rossini but there are doubts as to the true composer. It is often performed by great opera prima donnas; you can listen to it (well. the first minute of it) in it's most famous recording - Elizabeth Schwarzkopf and Victoria de los Angeles - go to this link on Amazon.com and listen to track 9, Duetto buffo de due gatti:
