That's why it's so easy to play Six Degrees To Algarotti with them. :)
Zelter: Zelter met and interacted with Amalie, who knew Algarotti personally when he lived in Berlin. That's almost too easy. However, how's this:
Queen Victoria to Algarotti! Victoria encountered Felix Mendelsohn (with a little awkward moment when it turned out her favourite of his Lieder had been composed by his sister Fanny). Felix met Zelter who met Amalie who met Algarotti.
Good grief. It just occured to me. Victoria being everyone's Grandma, you can also connect Wilhelm II. to Algarotti in one more step....
