Overtures
This seems odd - can anyone now add random recordings of an overture to an opera article? Cg2p0B0u8m (talk) 21:11, 22 April 2011 (UTC)
 * I was happy to see this old Paray performance added to the article (I did not add it), and there is no more appropriate place for it right now. Many of these early Mercury stereo recordings made quite an impression when they were first released, both sonically and also as performances, and are of some historical significance. This is probably why so many have been released on CD: there are enough of us around who remember their initial releases who will be interested to buy the CDs. So I don't see this as a particularly random selection. However, I can understand your concern, so I've added another source which supports including it. --Robert.Allen (talk) 08:53, 10 May 2011 (UTC)


 * I think there is a danger that people come along and add their favourite recording or conductor (with a reference of course). This happened already, for instance at La Jolie Fille de Perth (where I changed the section and left a simple description of the suite) and Le festin d’araignée where a random recording was twice added back in – so I have given up and just added more to make it look less odd. There must be other cases.
 * Here, I could for instance write something about the Suisse Romande recording with some nice quotes from a magazine (which I have); someone else could do the same for Pierné and so on. I am not sure what it would add to an encyclopedic article (about this piece rather than a performer or orchestra), nor if it would be tolerated for, say, Meistersinger.
