[edit] Date of death
Many older reference works showed him dying on 29th, and that date is even prominently inscribed on his sarcophagus.
However, Nicolas Slonimsky confirmed through medical record searches that he died on 28th, and that date is now shown in reputable sources. Cheers JackofOz 13:23, 23 October 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Gustav Neuhaus
Was Neuhaus, whose school he attended, his uncle, as is claimed in program notes to recordings anyway? Schissel-nonLop! 17:32, 2 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] About Korwin-Szymanowski, from both Ślepowron and Korwin CoA
Many families from Coat of arms of Ślepowron or some members of those families used/uses Korwin as Gentilicium, being Korwin an alternative name of Ślepowron, as well as the name of Coat of arms of Korwin at the same time. Any way, Herb Kowin is a Ślepowron odmiana or variation.
In a recent up date, Mr. Ryszard Jurzak added the surname Szymanowski to the list of the families entitled to use the Coat of arms Korwin. So there are Szymanowski and Korwin-Szymanowski in the Coat of arms Ślepowron as well as in the Coat of arms Korwin. --Gustavo Szwedowski de Korwin 03:42, 5 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Coat of Arms?
The coat of arms is way too big, and frankly unnecessary in this rather short article about a very important and significant composer. It adds a IMHO, ludicrous touch to the stub about this 20th century personality. Dr. Dan 02:52, 6 December 2006 (UTC)
