Talk:Giuseppe Giordani

Giordani, giuseppe

New page in Italian. I have requested translation. Espresso Addict 09:13, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

The text on that page seems to be the same as Giuseppe Giordani - Biografia, which I have added to this article as further reading. It would be a good source for expanding the article, but simply to translate it would seem likely to breach copyright, I’d guess. Ian Spackman 15:34, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

I have deleted that article as a copyright violation, and have subsequently redirected that article to this one. As Ian stated, the external link may be used as a source to expand this article, but not via wholesale copying of the content. Mindmatrix 13:19, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

Is Tommasso Giuseppe's brother?

Attention please: Giuseppe and Tommaso Giordani weren't brothers (and not even relatives): it's only a homonymy. Giuseppe father's name was Domenico and Tommaso father's name was Giuseppe. Please, correct the article. Sandrocozzi (talk) 10:44, 26 July 2014 (UTC)

In the article Tommaso Giordani (who is born 'ca. 1730'), there is the (unreferenced) statement 'Tommaso was trained in Naples and moved with the family to London around 1752.' Our Giuseppe was born in Naples in 1751, and also 'studied music in Naples', according to the biography at the Conservatorio etc. In the article about Tommaso, there is the (unreferenced) statement 'A younger brother was Giuseppe Giordani (1743–1798)'. Different dates of birth and death than our Giordani. I'm starting to think it's unlikely they were brothers... Laurier (talk) 10:18, 18 November 2014 (UTC)

Checking the Italian Wikipedia on https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Giuseppe_Giordani and https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tommaso_Giordani seems to confirm they are NOT brothers. They may well have been (distant?) relatives, giving the last name, the loaction of Naples and the name Giuseppe which seems to run in both families. On the page about Tommaso, there is this statement: 'Rimane tuttora irrisolta l'attribuzione della celebre canzone Caro mio ben, la quale è attribuita sia a Giuseppe Giordani, detto Il Giordanello, un compositore non imparentato con Tommaso, il quale è generalmente considerato il più probabile autore del brano, che allo stesso Tommaso. Anche il padre Giuseppe è stato recentemente preso in considerazione come possibile autore della popolare canzone.' My Italian is not good (at all), but I think this means the famous song Caro mio ben was attributed to (our) Giuseppe Giordano, NOT RELATED TO TOMMASO, and Tommaso is now considered the more probable author. Tommaso's father Giuseppe is also considered the possible author. Laurier (talk) 10:28, 18 November 2014 (UTC)

Caro mio ben

In this article, there is a remark about 'Caro mio ben':

"Until recently the popular aria Caro Mio Ben was ascribed to Giordani, however after recent scholarship his brother Tommaso Giordani is now attributed."

The reference for this article is http://artsongcentral.com/2007/giordani-caro-mio-ben/. On the referred website, there is only this statement: "John Glenn Paton cites evidence that the actual composer is Tommaso Giordani". Has anyone checked the John Glenn Paton-sources? I think this is hardly a reference... Laurier (talk) 09:00, 18 November 2014 (UTC)
