Talk:Montreal Women's Symphony Orchestra

First Women's Symphony Orchestra
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Montreal_Women's_Symphony_Orchestra

"It was the first women's symphony orchestra in Canada[1] and also North America. [2]" is incorrect. Antonia Brico was appointed conductor of the New York Women's Symphony Orchestra in 1934. WSO was founded by her according to other sources such as the NYT obit. From Wikipedia:

"In 1934 she was appointed conductor of the newly founded Women's Symphony Orchestra which, in January 1939 (following the admission of men), became the Brico Symphony Orchestra.[1]"
