Talk:Victor Herbert

message: Under "Instrumental Music" it says: "After Herbert's death, little of his instrumental music continued to be performed, but within the last couple of decades it has begun to enjoy revivals in concert and recordings. His Cello Concerto No. 2 in E minor, Op. 30, is an exception to this."
The second sentence is either saying that the Cello Concerto No. 2 is an exception to the revival of interest in Herbert's music or it (the concerto) is an exception in that interest never diminished.  I believe the author is trying to say the latter but it's unclear.  If it is the latter a better structure would be something like:
"After Herbert's death, little of his instrumental music (with the exception of the 2nd cello concerto which has remained in the repertory) continued to be performed. Within the last couple of decades, however, the rest of Herbert's instrumental music has begun to enjoy revivals in concert and recordings."  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Egoody3 (talk • contribs) 18:04, 17 April 2024 (UTC)
thread_title: Confusing line

message: I removed this line: In 1915, Herbert became the first man to compose a film score -- for The Fall of a Nation, a forgotten sequel to The Birth of a Nation. 
because it's simply untrue. Saint-Saëns was the first, for a film called L'Assassinat du duc de Guise (The Assassination of the Duke of Guise) in 1908. Melodia Chaconne 18:59, 30 July 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: 16 Dec 05 I removed the reference to "Sally (1920)" in the list of Herbert's compositions. The music to that show was composed by Jerome Kern. User:Jeffmatt
I added a lot of info from the web, but the article needs a better bibliography, footnoting, etc.  Ssilvers 01:21, 12 July 2006 (UTC)

text: I romoved this line "If one does not know about dis dude than they shall rejoice." And added nicer things!
3 Apr 08.  Although Jerome Kern wrote the music for SALLY (1920), Victor Herbert wrote its "Butterfly Ballet", per E.N. Waters biography, p. 525.  He wrote songs for other Ziegfeld shows, including contributing to several editions of the Ziegfeld Follies - 1917, 1920, 1921, 1922, 1923 (per the J. Kaye biography, p. 266) [User: Eriknorcal]  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Eriknorcal (talk • contribs) 06:13, 3 April 2008 (UTC)

message: I restored the changes concerning Herbert's birthplace.  This Irish Times article about Herbert's Guernsey birth cites the research.  Can anyone find other sources about it? -- Ssilvers (talk) 00:34, 21 February 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: I wish Grove's Dictionary of Music and Musicians would keep up with you. We drew their attention to the facts two years or so ago, but the false information is still given that he was born in Dublin. Tim riley talk 16:02, 22 March 2022 (UTC)
