Germaine Tailleferre's legal name was indeed "Marcelle Taillefesse" edit

This is according to the SACEM records and the Tailleferre Estate...What are your sources? Musikfabrik 20:58, 15 June 2006 (UTC)Reply

Hello and thank you for your comments. My information about Honneger comes from several first-hand source. You will note that I did not give the reason, which is rather explosive. Since I cannot presently give the reason why there was this state of affairs, I decided to omit the phrase which stated the reason generally given, leaving the question open. While this doesn't solve the enigma, it does indicate that there are perhaps questions which should be asked, which may lead some people to an understanding of what is being expressed here.

I'm sorry to be so cryptic, but it is currently necessary. Musikfabrik 10:53, 27 June 2006 (UTC)Reply


*BAMF!* edit

Erin! I must say that the persistent reminder of your Wikipedia antics (e.g. the drama and humor of various composers) kinda made me want to join up here.

So, here I am, and thank you.

But, I must be going! *BAMF!* I Jethrobot 06:24, 15 August 2006 (UTC)Reply

Le Boeuf edit

I checked my sources and realized that I read the information wrong. The Bar was named for the ballet which was conceived at the old bar...I've changed the information and added my source, which is an out-of-print transcript of a French television interview with Cocteau. Cocteau does not mention the name being from a Brazlian song, but he does say that the title was intended to mock such names as "Le Chien qui fume" and "Le Cheval Bai", which the creators found to be ridiculous. Strangely also, he speaks of the "spectacle" being performed by the "Fratellini Clowns" and with a "foxtrot" section which was a gynastic number. It sounds less and less like a ballet re-reading this. Whether this was more of a Cocteau show than a Milhaud show is a matter for discussion. Cocteau makes it sound as if he was the one who was running things, but....

  • Speaking of Milhaud, that article needs a major rewrite. It jumps from 1922 to 1939 and really only glosses over things which should be developed. Do you think that you might be willing to try to flesh these things out a bit?Musikfabrik 12:15, 1 September 2006 (UTC)Reply

WikiProject LGBT studies edit

Hello! I noticed that your userpage mentions that you are interested in LGBT issues. Would you be interested in joining WikiProject LGBT studies? The WikiProject's been a bit inactive recently and some of us are trying to get it going again. We'd love to have you on board! Dev920 (Have a nice day!) 21:34, 3 December 2006 (UTC)Reply

Natasha Chances edit

Hello, I see that you have once edited the page Natasha_Soloveitchik_Chances. She has died. Her obituary is here: [1]

honegger, milhaud, etc. edit

erin, it's impossible for a girl born in '86 to understand this music, i'd suggest that you stop listening to it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.160.162.242 (talk) 07:29, 6 March 2008 (UTC)Reply

Survey edit

Hi erin!

I have put together a survey for female editors of Wikipedia (and related projects) in order to explore, in greater detail, women's experiences and roles within the Wikimedia movement. It'd be wonderful if you could participate!

It's an independent survey, done by me, as a fellow volunteer Wikimedian. It is not being done on behalf of the Wikimedia Foundation. I hope you'll participate!

Just click this link to participate in this survey, via Google!

Any questions or concerns, feel free to email me or stop by my user talk page. Also, feel free to share this any other female Wikimedians you may know. It is in English, but any language Wikimedia participants are encouraged to participate. I appreciate your contributions - to the survey and to Wikipedia! Thank you!

Precious edit

French 20th-century music

Thank you for quality articles around Milhaud and Honegger, such as Madeleine Milhaud, Pacific 231, Andrée Vaurabourg and Jean Guillou, for "heavily edited the biography", for reverting vandalism, and correcting typos and names, - you are an awesome Wikipedian!
