Talk:Operatic pop

message: Why is Michael Jackson in this list? He isn't associated with classical or crossover any bit. I don't even know any of his songs or singing referring to classical.
At least to me, Freddie Mercury was more classical-oriented. He certainly released classical, not sure if he ever did it solo. 85.217.41.33 (talk) 19:18, 18 January 2011 (UTC)

thread_title:  Vivace 

message: Wouldn't it be relevant to add Mercury and Caballé's "Barcelona" as an example of pop-opera, or pop-crossing-over-to-meet-with-opera? It was a huge event, and it certainly bridged the two styles. Caballé was singing pure operatic style in Mercury's pop composition; and Freddy sang in his pop fashion right alongside. The significance of the event also can't be over-stated. Might it not warrant inclusion in the article? It was a major event, certainly worthy of being documented in an Encyclopedia, and it certainly seemed, for all the world to see, an unimaginable pairing of different worlds. 2001:8A0:7C19:2801:A073:660:35B:F3A (talk) 20:41, 14 January 2024 (UTC)

thread_title: Edit summaries

message: Because the work exists in three versions that are dramaturgically, and perhaps in some ways musically, distinct, it would be very useful and more accurate to tie the critical response to the appropriate version.
As well, it would be very informative to specify clearly how the versions are different in terms of musical language. Penderecki's use of microtonal masses and glissandi moderated through his career. Since the versions are separated by three years and another three years, one might expect some alteration in how the composer presents the vocal lines and the orchestral role.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tgkohn (talk • contribs) 04:35, 23 February 2018 (UTC)

Talk:José van Dam

message: José van Dam is a celebrated opera singer, but I don't think the use of the the phrase 'extraordinary performances' ('has won many international awards for his extraordinary performances both on stage and in recordings') is neutral.
Also, 'recognizing him as one of the finest classical singers who ever lived' is subjective. If this phrase was included in the citation with the  award mentioned, or if someone expressed that opinion, it should be made clear where and by whom the view was expressed.

thread_title:  Sources are missing 

message: The title "Tu es Petrus secundum magnum" is highly doubtful. Grove Music Online includes among Mustafà's works "settings of O salutaris hostia, Tu es Petrus [no secundum], Miserere and Dies irae."Elizabeth Forbes, "Mustafà, Domenico," Grove Music Online) "Secundum magnum" is not part of the motet text. I suspect the writer copied them unthinkingly from whatever source s/he used. "Secundum magnum" could possibly identify Mustafà's "second, large" setting of Tu es Petrus, or it could describe M's setting as being "after the great" [other composer's name]: e.g. "Tu es Petrus, secundum magnum Orlandum Lassum."

The notability tag is asking for some independent reliable sources to be used as sources for the article text.

In this one I have made the links English when Nash was in a production sung in English, e.g. the BNOC ones, and in the original when he was singing in the original, as at Covent Garden or Glyndebourne. This is logical, I think, but it means that e.g. Wagner's comic opera appears in the article both as The Mastersingers and Die Meistersinger (though both of course link to Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg).

Or you could say something like this (I'm making up details obviously): 'he made his debut as Walther in Wagner's Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg in an English production at the New York City Opera'.
