Thanks for the suggestions. I had a quick glance at them, but nothing
seemed to fit the bill. Doing it from scratch is the second option, but
these things always seem to have a habit of growing and while I don't
anticipate any major problems, it's still considerably more than a trivial
job. The end user isn't going to want to poke around in php files to change
drop down lists so there's going to have to be an administrative front end
for the whole thing - there's definitely going to have to be a database
behind it all.

ps isn't 'Perfect brass' an oxymoron? Surely you mean 'sensuous strings'.
