[edit] György Stern or György Solti??

We say his original surname was both Stern and Solti. Which is it?? JackofOz 06:02, 9 January 2006 (UTC)

Question has been answered. He was born Stern, and his father changed the family name to Solti. Fixed. JackofOz 02:23, 1 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Awards' important omission

What is that sole mention of "one" Grammy in "Awards and Recognitions". It is a very well known fact that he is the most awarded person in Grammy's history (38). So, that has to stand out in that section. Nazroon 12:05, 22 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Chicago Symphony

The paragraph under "Chicago Symphony", discussing the rise of the ensemble on the world stage is wildly subjective and, I think, an inaccurate portrayal of Solti's contributions. Reiner was brilliant and talented but – in terms of making the orchestra a household name – he was mostly the primer for Solti to step in and push the group to the fame it achieved. The paragraph should be rewritten or deleted.
