[edit] Foreign language sources
From Wikipedia:Citing sources:
- "Because this is the English Wikipedia, English-language sources should be given whenever possible, and should always be used in preference to other language sources of equal calibre. However, do give references in other languages where appropriate. If quoting from a different language source, an English translation should be given with the original-language quote beside it."

[edit] Re: Lwów-Warsaw School of Logic
Hi. I have made redirect "Lwów-Warsaw School of Logic" to "Lviv-Warsaw School...", because of unification of English names of both cities. So, now both versions are exist and it should be change, because they are equal. The only difference is name of Lviv. I think only one of them can exist. Gerea-en 09:40, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
- In future, you should move articles by using the "move" button at the top of the page, or by listing them at Wikipedia:Requested moves, not by copying-and-pasting the text into a new article. Thanks – Qxz 11:16, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Adagio by Remo Giazotto.
To my full delight, I read some interesting note on the talk page regarding the Adagio from Giazotto. You said there that the six bars that Giazotto would've received from Dresden (as some sources state) are just history.
Are you positive about that? I am very interested with this subject and found so little information on the Internet (and none in books, however I see this subject much too controversial for books to be able to keep the pace). Could you send me a message in my talk page and make the whole thing a little clearer? How much of the bass line is said to have been kept? Did Giazotto receive from Dresden the full part for basso continuo? If so, was the figured bass written below the staffs?
I thought for myself that the "six bars" would count as six before orchestra enters, i.e. the organ chords with that rapid grace notes before them. Despite the fact that they sound not so baroque, i thought it was them that were, at least, there. (I thought that maybe some first page of the full orchestral score escaped, along with the bass part.) Could you point me some reliable source from where I could read this for myself? And why don't you add these details on Wikipedia? - there are so many interested with this subject. Or the less, please give me a brief answer here. Thanks for your time and cheers!

- Thank you for the answer; I have read myself the German article in the meantime and the statements made there almost scared me! I've also read about it all on All Music Guide and the guys are as radical as the German Wikipedians. Such a shame for Remo Giazzotto, I guess that in return to all money he earned during a lifetime with this commercial stratagem, he will be forever pointed at for his knavery.
- Fact: the Chaconne in G minor attributed to T.A. Vitali (another High Italian Baroque composer!) is anyone's but not his. It obviously resembles the Mendelssohn's Violin concerto in E minor, op.64, as Mendelssohn worked the violin parts with a renowned violinist of the time, Ferdinand David! Although this hoax is of an older age (sometime before 1867), I am still curious why this tendency to bind some personal composition to some obscure-High-Italian-Baroque composer!
- Another fact: I was terribly amused, but also angry, when a girl told me some rumor two weeks ago, that the orchestra on Titanic played "Albinoni's Adagio" on the ship's deck while sinking! (Impy4ever 18:06, 16 August 2007 (UTC))
