Orser's music?
Orser's website says his Olympic LP music was "The Bolt". --Fang Aili talk 03:26, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

It also says that The Bolt is the name of the ballet and the name of the music was Dance of the Carter" / "Dance of Kozelkov and His Friends. Kolindigo 03:52, 4 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Ok, cool. --Fang Aili talk 14:29, 4 September 2006 (UTC)


 * On the other hand, we always say Carmen and not the exact cuts of the music used, so maybe the Bolt is more correct. What do you think? Kolindigo 15:08, 4 September 2006 (UTC)


 * It could say, "skated to "Dance of the Carter" and "Dance of Kozelkov and His Friends" from the ballet The Bolt. Or just, "music from the ballet The Bolt, depending on what level of detail you want. --Fang Aili talk 15:57, 4 September 2006 (UTC)


 * I like that first one. It's very precise. Kolindigo 16:53, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

Competition description at Brian Boitano
The Brian Boitano article goes into much more detail about this competition. Perhaps some merging is in order, though I'm not convinced the encyclopedia needs that much detail. --Fang Aili talk 14:27, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

Boitano's Music
His (Boitano's) program, set to the music of "Napoleon", showed five stages in a soldier's life.

The "music of Napoleon" is an odd way of putting it, especially after being more specific about Orser's music. I'm guessing that Napoleon was not the composer. Who was, and is "Napoleon" an opera, a symphony, a film?

Play on Words
The "Battle of the Brians" as a term has entered Canadian media and culture, and even Hollywood has taken notice of this. It does not detract from the main purpose of the article, nor does it justify a separate article. GoldDragon (talk) 16:44, 27 July 2010 (UTC)
