Image:Euphoniumrange.JPG

edit

Hi - I see you recently created the useful playing range image for the euphonium article. I have two comments regarding this, but am unable to perform the edits myself as I do not have Finale:

  • The image is a JPG, and would be better as a PNG (like most other instrument range images) to avoid the JPG compression artefacts
  • The top of the range is in tenor clef. The text in the article currently refers to the top of the range as "... below the bass clef ... to ... above [the bass clef]...", so no mention of tenor clef. Would it be better to illustrate the top of the range also in bass clef? Mcpgv 22:31, 11 February 2007 (UTC)Reply

Article move from "Thad Jones/Mel Lewis Big Band" to "Vanguard Jazz Orchestra"

edit

Hi. I placed the following note in the Vanguard Jazz Orchestra discussion page.
I was surprised to see this page moved to a different title. I would recommend the article be returned to its original title. According to the "What links here" listing, there are currently around 20 wiki articles that reference the "Thad Jones / Mel Lewis Big Band" directly and only a few (~3) that seem to reference the "Vanguard Jazz Orchestra" uniquely (i.e. only a few that reference the orchestra as it exists post Jones/Lewis). This seems to support the assumption that the "Thad Jones/Mel Lewis Big Band" (and/or "...Orchestra") is the more useful and relevant article title. These ~20 references are specifically to the band as it existed during the period with Thad Jones and Mel Lewis as co-leaders and not to the later VJO incarnation. I think the previous arrangement made more sense ("Vanguard Jazz Orchestra" redirects to "Thad Jones/Mel Lewis Big Band"). One could always start a new article for the Vanguard Jazz Orchestra if desired. Pugetbill 14:19, 23 June 2007 (UTC)Reply

Did you check out the links in my last post here? That's the funny thing with encyclopedias. Unlike forums, you need a reliable source to verify it. Crazy, isn't it. Dan56 (talk) 03:05, 4 February 2011 (UTC)Reply
The source is the New Yorker article that comprises two pages. The statement is supported by the second page. Dan56 (talk) 03:18, 4 February 2011 (UTC)Reply
