Talk:Michael Costa (conductor)

Untitled
Due to my starting my stub without being sure which was his major source of notability, i only discovered the existing article after completing this (& rescuing some misnamed lks intended for him). Someone with more interest should probably check for conflict among sources (i notice place of death), and leave a note below indicating that everything of value in my stub is also covered adequately in the article.
