Talk:Pulitzer Prize for Music

message: I removed the following, on the grounds that it gives undue weight -- in an article with only paragraph of actual text -- to one guy's opinion. Context, please, before polemics. --Calton | Talk 00:12, 24 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: In 1998 Kyle Gann wrote that after researching the top composition prizes in America, including the Pulitzer Prize for Music, he discovered that the award panels often included "the same seven names over and over as judges": Gunther Schuller, Joseph Schwantner, Jacob Druckman (now deceased), George Perle, John Harbison, Mario Davidovsky, and Bernard Rands. Gann concluded that since all of these composers are white men, and generally have same "narrow Eurocentric aesthetic" that the prize has been unfairly biased against Downtown music. 
Again, I have removed the two paragraphs worth undue weight opinion -- having essentially one man's opinion take up two-thirds of the article text is unbalanced and ignores context. Provide the context, the background to the award, etc. or out it will continue to come. --Calton | Talk 23:53, 24 November 2006 (UTC)

message: In the list of Winners, the entry for 1965 says "no prize awarded (see Duke Ellington).  In the article on Duke Ellington it states that he was not awarded a Pulitzer in 1965 (on one was, in that year), but that he was awarded a posthumous Pulitzer in 1999.   It would seem, then, that the "see Duke Elington" note should appear next to the entry for 1999, and not 1965.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.95.43.249 (talk) 23:14, 3 October 2014 (UTC)

message: There is nothing positive about the prize in the piece as it stands, nor is there anything relevant to its initial institution in 1943; the piece starts with 1965 and the Duke Ellington matter. Is there any way we can get some true historical value and impartiality into this piece, rather than the axe-grinding we are seeing now?Pinikadia 12:28, 21 April 2016 (UTC)
