[edit] The Famous Concerto
Is it not true that the famous Dragonetti concerto is actually by Eduard Nanny? A couple bassists have told me as much. D SCH 01:20, 13 July 2006 (UTC)
- It is generally believed to be written by Edouard Nanny. At least that's what I have always believed and found to be true and what my teacher told me back when I played the piece. ßottesiηi (talk) 17:54, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Incorrect dates
from the sources I have (paul brun 2000), the correct date of birth is April 9 (not april 7) and he left to london at the age of 31 and not 21. Since there was no reference from the people who wrote the page before, I decided to change it to the data I have. Please give references if you have them on the april 7 and age of 21. tradora 17:20, 22 January 2006 (UTC)
I found the date april 7 in the Encyclopedia Britannica, 11th Edition [1] but there is another mistake as it is said that he went to london in 1704, before his birth ??? I therefore leave april 9, until further reference is given. tradora 18:59, 22 January 2006 (UTC)
Today, someone changed the date of birth back to April 7th ... I reverted for the reasons written above .... please give references if you have them !!!! tradora 09:23, 3 March 2006 (UTC)
looks like the article was almost a copy of [2] ... without any source either .... tradora 23:21, 22 January 2006 (UTC)
[edit] phony data
the info about the mannequins seems a little exagerated (the part about the seating in front rows and the "wife") compared to what is written in (paul brun 2000) ... i'm taking that out unless someone can give references ... same thing for the part about bottesini and the question for being allowed to see the double bass in venice ... tradora 17:25, 22 January 2006 (UTC)
same thing for the speculation about the basses tradora 22:11, 22 January 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Cleanup needed
While interesting and a good length, this article features various out of wikistyle external links, whole quoted paragraphs that could be paraphrased, and dubious to false information about Dragonetti taken from parody web sources. A general cleanup is required. -- ßottesiηi (talk) 17:13, 21 November 2006 (UTC)
