Everything I just put in is from the New Grove, with one exception: that Schikaneder played the role of Papageno in the premiere of The Magic Flute, which I extracted from my fallible memory. I'll try to find a real reference source for this claim.

[edit] Never trust the New Grove

Never trust New Grove.--131.130.135.193 14:44, 19 November 2006 (UTC)
Hello 131.130.135.193, This won't do - if you have better information than the New Grove, you have to add a citation of this source, and explain why it's better. Note in particular that nobody gets to edit Wikipedia just on their own personal authority; it's against the organization's policy. Opus33 02:36, 20 November 2006 (UTC)
