Talk:Patrick Moraz

message: Was Patrick Moraz born in 1944 or 1948? There are conflicting edits, and conflicting reports in online Yes fandom. Bondegezou 12:10, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Year of birth?

message: The following sentence is unclear as to which band it is referring as both Yes and Refugee are mentioned before it:
"Although Vangelis was the first candidate to join the band, he was finally discarded in favour of Moraz, because of legal issues related to work permits in the United Kingdom."
I don't have the info to make an edit. It would be great if someone else can help out. Thoughts?THX1136 (talk) 16:15, 28 January 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: The preceding sentence about playing with Refugee on their self-titled album, and which thereby introduced this ambiguity, had been added by an anonymous IP on 24 April 2011.  So I have simply undone that change. Feline Hymnic (talk) 21:20, 25 June 2014 (UTC)
thread_title:  Unclear sentence 

message: I wonder when Moraz studied at the Lausanne Conservatory. The present text mentions that he broke four fingers at the age of 13, and the next sentence mentions him studying at the Lausanne Conservatory with Clara Haskil, implying that this took place after his accident. Moraz being born in 1948, the accident would have been in 1961. But Clara Haskil died in 1960, and there is no mention in her WP article of her teaching at the Lausanne Conservatory, although she did live in Switzerland for a long time. Did Moraz study at the Conservatory before he was 12 years old, in 1960? When was he in high school? When did he study with Nadia Boulanger? There seems to be something wrong with the chronology here. --Hansung02 (talk) 22:12, 29 July 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: I didn't check on any additional information on Clara Haskil and the Lausanne Conservatory, but I just checked the Nadia Boulanger article and the list of students of her and there is no mention of Moraz studying with her. It is not impossible, Boulanger was back in Paris from 1946 until her death in 1979 and she continued teaching during that entire period. Moraz being born in 1948, the teaching would have to be somewhere after 1961 when he broke his fingers. As a teenager he toured Europe with his own jazz ensemble and maybe he was in Paris for some time, I don't know about that, so it is possible but without any sources present it remains an open question.

message: I acn tell anyone here that there are several photographs of Moraz that are far better candidates for the main picture than the one given on the article. That could be anyone. it merely takes a simple google search to find fine photos of the man.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2607:FCC8:89CA:CA00:1904:3A69:775E:E036 (talk) 21:36, 25 April 2017 (UTC)

replies: text: When and where was that? If you do have a source for this, feel free to include it in the article and/or infobox and make a reference for it. Hansung02 (talk) 13:16, 31 July 2023 (UTC)
thread_title: To add to article

message: I would like to add a few instruments in the infobox but the template says that a consensus has to be reached before adding any instruments. I don't know how that works, that's why I posted the issue here. Moraz did and does play more instruments than just keyboards, that's in various interviews he gave. But how to add them?
