Confusion with Eugenio Esposito

edit

The direction of the Sadko premiere, at least, has been misattributed: Michele's younger brother Eugenio (himself active as a composer in Russia) was the conductor for that. I cannot find a source for performers in the Moscow premiere of Khovanshchina, but I wonder if that too might be a case of mistaken identity -- can someone check this?

You are right. This has to be changed, too. Michele Esposito never conducted in Russia. It would have been mentioned in Dibble's biography of Michele, but isn't. Perhaps the whole reference to these events should be deleted – or someone writes a biography of Eugenio Esposito.Aklein62 (talk) 13:37, 13 July 2015 (UTC)Reply
