[edit] Details

The stub had Lysenko's middle name as "Vitaliyovych", while the New Grove Dictionary of Music and Musicians has it as "Vytaliyovych". I don't know which one is more valid from a linguistic point of view (I don't even know if Ukrainian is written in the Cyrillic alphabet), so for now I'll go with the New Grove way.

"Vitaliyovych" is aligned with the Ukrainian pronunciation, which is in Cyrillic. It is the spelling used in books such as Ethnic identity, music, and politics in nineteenth-century Ukraine: The world of Mykola Lysenko. When I get a chance, I will probably beef up this article. --JamesTeterenko 19:01, 23 Aug 2004 (UTC)

The New Grove mentions that Lysenko was a bearer at Shevchenko's funeral, but it's not clear whether this was at the first (Russian) or second (Ukrainian) burial, or maybe both. Del arte 19:11, 13 Aug 2004 (UTC)

Edited out the Russian spelling of Mykola Lysenko as there is absolutely no need for it to be there. Sorouthorn 18:38 25 August 2004

Excellent, thank you very much. Del arte 19:57, 26 August 2006 (UTC)
