Talk:San zhi xiao zhu

message: Three Little Pigs is about the story itself. This article is about the idiom. So i think we should not merge. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 220.255.191.100 (talk • contribs) 2007 January 31 23:00 UTC

That does not mean - nothing can be reported until it is many years old. Which in any case one of the events is.

Talk:Royal Athletic Park

message: I've been to Royal Athletic Park several times and I believe that the capacity is less than 1000 in typical configurations.  I do not believe that the 9200 capacity is accurate.  Perhaps 920?  I don't have any inside knowledge, but it is clear that capacity is less than 9000.

replies: text:  You're right that it seems high.  It came from the city's page, and I think refers to the 'convention' or 'open field' capacity (like for beer fest).  I actually work so once all of the world cup things are done this summer, I'll get the post-world cup SEATING capacity.

Talk:Ballad opera

message: I actually got hold of some recording of 20th century "ballad operas" to confirm this, but the term as applied to these works either has nothing whatever to do with the 18th century genre - or is based on a misapprehension. (Mind you this has nothing to do with how "good" they are - in fact they are definitely at least "interesting").
Perhaps we need another article to cover 20th century "ballad operas"??? --(Soundofmusicals 23:07, 31 January 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: 20th century Ballad Operas

message: For what it's worth, here's Thomas Bauman writing in the Oxford Illustrated History of Opera: "A flood of imitations and successors followed close on the heels of Gay's opera. The elememts of satire and burlesque remained strong in many of these works, for example several by Henry Fielding, but serious, naive, historical, rustic and patriotic themes also found in the ballad opera a congenial format...After mid-century the English ballad opera began to yield to comic operas with more and more of their music by a single composer. The transition received decisive impetus when John Beard took over Covent Garden in 1760 and began at once to set opera before spoken plays in his repertoire..." Bauman recommends Roger Fiske's English Theatre Music in the Eighteenth Century as the most comprehensive work on this period.
A couple of queries: Thomas D'Urfey couldn't have cashed in on the craze for The Beggar's Opera (1728) since he had died in 1723; and Thomas Dibdin should probably be Charles Dibdin his father? --Folantin 08:12, 26 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Thanks for this, these points should be incorporated, the article adjusted as appropriate. I will do it when I have time if no-one else does. D'Urfey - you are right of course, however the WP article on D'Urfey says that 10 of the numbers in 'The Beggar's  Opera;' are by him - needs to be checked out.--Smerus 18:54, 26 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I think Gay and Pepusch reused ten or so numbers by D'Urfey, probably from his collection of ballads and songs Wit and Mirth, or Pills to Purge Melancholy. More tomorrow. --Folantin 19:03, 26 July 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Info from Oxford Illustrated History of Opera

message: Rinaldo did not have "racy English dialogue", did not use pre-existent folk ballad tunes, was not a "satirical" story with "lower class, often criminal, characters". It did not represent "eighteenth-century protest against the Italian conquest of the London operatic scene", it represented part of that conquest, as it was "the first Italian opera composed specifically for the London stage". It may well be the source cited does say it was the first ballad opera; but then obviously the author of that source has his own definition of a ballad opera, and it is very different from the one used in this article. If so, that should have been specified, because otherwise the paragraph doesn't make sense. --91.148.159.4 (talk) 14:58, 3 July 2009 (UTC)

message: Hi,
I have re-activated the link to the Tailored Texts edition of 'Un Coeur Simple' in the original French. The edition contains over 1000+ human-made annotations made specifically for English speakers reading the original (many of whom will be using this Wikipedia page).
It is a unique resource in that it allows interactive annotations (i.e. any registered users can annotate the text and discuss them, not just the webmaster) and that the interface has been specifically designed for people reading foreign-language literature.

Talk:Winter Kept Us Warm

message: The initial release of WKUW was at Cardiff, in Wales, in the autumn of 1965. I think it was the Commonwealth Film Festival being held there. The first print was rushed from the lab onto the airplane with Sector and one or two others, and then raced by rented car over to Cardiff just in time for the screening. I know this because I was the only person to have screened the whole film in Toronto as it came from the lab, and then I gave it to David to take on the plane.
I think some other source must settle whether this was ever shown at Cannes; and whether it was the first Canadian film there.
It was the first Canadian film to open the Commonwealth Film Festival, as I recall, but that also would have to be sourced. I think there is some real confusion here.
