Category talk:Musical forms

Group or form?
I don't think things like Cello sonata really belong here -- they are Category:Musical Groups. I think they should be deleted, but I'd like input from other people. Cheers. --bleh fu 04:14, Jan 12, 2005 (UTC)


 * But a cello sonata is not a musical group, it is a piece featuring cello in sonata form. Hyacinth 21:37, 12 Jan 2005 (UTC)


 * I see what you mean; perhaps I should rephrase: I think that the form Sonata would be all-inclusive of any instrumental type of sonata, whether violin, cello, etc., and describing the organization of music, not the instrumentation. --bleh fu 02:53, Jan 13, 2005 (UTC)


 * The correct place to propose the deletion of pages would be Votes for deletion. There should be directions there, but you will most likely need to list each page you would like deleted, rather than as a group (as here).
 * That said, I disagree. The current cello sonata article proper contains only three sentences, and serves as an introduction. The bulk of the page is actually a list of cello sonatas. I would propose, at most, that you move the first page to the latter. See: How to rename (move) a page. Hyacinth 03:12, 13 Jan 2005 (UTC)
 * Sorry for the confusion -- I only was suggesting that only Category:Musical form be removed from cello sonata and others of its ilk. --bleh fu 04:09, Jan 13, 2005 (UTC)

Points of discussion
I don't think that Bimbo (song) fits here as it is a specific song, rather than a musical form. Will delete for the time being.Ck lostsword 17:58, 9 January 2006 (UTC)

Categories
I think we should add Jazz forms as a category and include under it forms like Twelve bar blues and Thirty-two-bar form76.166.177.72 (talk) 18:09, 13 June 2008 (UTC)
