[edit] English title

I moved this article to the English title as per Wikipedia:Naming conventions (use English). Hyacinth 20:26, 24 Sep 2004 (UTC)

And I moved it to turn the original into a disambiguation page that points to the poem and the composition. David Sneek 08:05, 17 July 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Cats

Afternoon of a Faun is a choreography, a ballet, and a piece of music, and could be categorized as all of those. One the one hand "ballet" means music and choreography, so those categorizations are unecessary. On the other, what is a choreography without its dance, ballet, or music? Are there articles about "choreographies"? Hyacinth 01:17, 27 Sep 2004 (UTC)

[edit] correction to title

The correct name of this work is "Prelude A L'apres-midi d'un Faune". Whatever happened to the "Prelude" bit? Debussy never intended this as a ballet. To him it was a concert piece.

User:Ogg, on wikipedia, per Wikipedia:Naming conventions (use English), English titles are preferred.

The current article is about the "concert piece" and the ballet. Perhaps you are willing to create a seperate article for the piece? Hyacinth 20:55, 7 Oct 2004 (UTC)
