Talk:John Eliot Gardiner

message: The German article on this man is far more detailed than the English. And he is English. Any translators would be welcome.
Gardiner studied history, not music, at Cambridge.  See the linked interview.  I'm making the correction. 69.12.144.158 21:05, 15 January 2006 (UTC)

message: I have added the cleanup tag, since this article is in serious need of improvement. Grammar, style, punctuation, etc., all need much attention. I will do what I can when I can, but I encourage others to help too! --Wspencer11 (talk to me...) 21:39, 22 May 2007 (UTC)

message: How come this article is B-class, yet it is a biographical article that needs more citations? George8211 conversations 08:34, 13 October 2013 (UTC)

message: I have removed the postnominal letters FKC from the first sentence, on the basis that is it not conventional to indicate honorary degrees in this way (see List of post-nominal letters (United Kingdom). I have left this award in the Honours and awards section. Verbcatcher (talk) 20:09, 29 October 2013 (UTC)
thread_title: Postnominal letters

message: The article says "In 1968 he founded the Monteverdi Orchestra. Upon changing from modern instruments to period instruments in 1977, the orchestra changed its name to the English Baroque Soloists." Is this true, or was one orchestra wound up and a new one founded with specialist period instrument players? There is no reference to the Monteverdi Orchestra in the English Baroque Soloists article. Can someone please check this, and if necessary update both articles and set up a new page or a redirect for Monteverdi Orchestra. Verbcatcher (talk) 20:23, 29 October 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: Resolved. The text was correct, I have added citations. Verbcatcher (talk) 22:47, 27 November 2015 (UTC)

message: We talk about the rudeness of Toscanini, Kathleen Battle and others.  Why not Gardiner?    etc.  --  Jack of Oz [pleasantries] 21:48, 4 August 2015 (UTC)
thread_title: Rudeness

message: If one met the great man would he invite one to call him John or John-Eliot (putting aside his spoken-of rudeness)?  I suppose the latter is no odder than John-Paul or Jean-Michel.  If the invitation to be familiar was not forthcoming would one call him Sir John or Sir J-E.  Sebmelmoth (talk) 13:23, 9 October 2016 (UTC)

message: Hello, I have modified a reference to an Italian University in the "Honours and awards" section (changed "University of Pavia" with "University of Mantova").  It appears the old name was wrongly copied from the external website quoted; anyway Monteverdi's birthpace was Mantova, not Pavia.  Regards Vbrm (talk) 09:38, 13 January 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: Birth place of Monteverdi is Cremona and the source says honorary doctorate University of Cremona. So I corrected this. Grimes2 (talk) 09:58, 13 January 2020 (UTC)
