Talk:Bridge (music)

message: I dislike people refering to pre-choruses as bridges, but I put a note in the article about it. They are a type of bridge, but not the bridge. --86.130.146.237 04:45, 19 January 2006 (UTC)

message: Taylor's program notes, written in collaboration with Gershwin in 1928, are printed in full without a copyright notice in the piano score I have. They are also frequently quoted in recording liner notes as well as in the Wikipedia article An American in Paris  and are likely by now public domain. In any case I believe this would qualify for exemption as a "short excerpt in a review or article". D A Patriarche 22:47, 1 September 2007 (UTC)

message: Someone who is a good Wikipedia programmer might like to add a disambiguation for 'bridge', which refers to a large structure spanning a waterway or whatever, the musical meaning in this article, a part of various string instruments, and so on.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.72.92.159 (talk) 01:04, 17 January 2008 (UTC)

message: I have initiated a formal RM action to move Musical scale to Scale (music). Contributions and comments would be very welcome; decisions of this kind could affect the choice of title for many music theory articles.

thread_title:  Requested move: "Musical scale" → "Scale (music)" 

message: While reading various Wikipedia articles and some of the books that touch on the subject, I got a bit confused about terminology and now I hope that someone with relevant knowledge could provide clarity and sources so we can improve the relevant articles.
For example:
* Is there a difference between bridge and bridge passage?
* Do bridge and transition have the same meaning?
* Is bridge (passage) a kind of transition or vice versa?
* Does bridge (passage) mean different things in different contexts (e.g. classical vs popular music)?
* Should it be bridge-passage or bridge passage?
* Should transition be merged into bridge?
* Should retransition and transitional episode have articles? LazyStarryNights (talk) 23:09, 3 August 2013 (UTC)

message: The term "bridge" is mentioned in dialog of “Nanny’s Song” by Susan Cowsill.  At the end of the song one of the artists says “Sorry about the bridge”, and Susan responds in a British access, “That’s quite alright, I like spontaneity”. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dnevil (talk • contribs) 21:06, 14 November 2014 (UTC)
