In the original artcle, Hamlisch was listed as having entered Juilliard at age 7. In his own autobiography, he says he was accepted at age 6, so I have changed that. Rich 21:07, 9 February 2006 (UTC)

I see it was changed back. There's some confusion here with some sources saying seven[1] and others saying six[2]. I found one that splits the difference, hold on.--T. Anthony 11:23, 24 February 2006 (UTC)

I know we're not supposed to include original research, but I just got off the phone with Hamlisch an hour ago, and he confirmed that it was 6. (I wasn't calling him about that; I did an interview with him for the radio station where I work.) He maintains absolutely that he was six when he entered Juilliard.

I added what I think is anecdotal material from Hamlisch's recent concert performance with the Long Beach Symphony Pops. Is this ok? (Bullfrog117 07:11, 26 March 2007 (UTC))

[edit] Major artistic awards

I wrote this sentence, but am having minor concerns. "...to have won the five major artistic awards...". Is it reasonable to characterise the EGOT+P as "the five major artistic awards."? Am open to better suggestions. Manning (talk) 01:19, 6 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Hamlisch is now the Principal Pops Conductor of the Seattle Symphony

Per http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/thearts/2004248918_conc29.html, Hamlisch is now signed on in Seattle as well. I'll hold off on the edit since I'm new at this. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jonn msft (talk • contribs) 04:40, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
