Talk:Pieter Wispelwey

Untitled
Cleaned it up a bit so that it reads less like a bio on a concert programme. More work can be done. Bart 10:10, 13 September 2005 (UTC)

I realize this is quite random, bit Wispelwey is a phenomenal artist! Do listen to his recording of Chopan's Waltzes - they are gorgeous! Gautam Discuss 08:04, 23 April 2007 (UTC)

What a crappy article - "This was not always so" - oh horrors!? Not always so? Fiends! Unregistered reader, Japan, 12 Dec 2009

Enfant terrible?
Why does it matter if he was considered an enfant terrible by some? Also, what does that have to do with being typecast as a Baroque cellist? Stara729 (talk) 02:29, 23 October 2013 (UTC)

Reference to Australian Broadcasting Corporation
Under "Personal Life" the article gratuitously claims that "In 2017 the Australian Broadcasting Corporation keeps saying he is an Australian performer.". This statement should be removed for the following reasons: 1. It has nothing to do with Mr Wispelwey's personal life. 2. It is unsubstantiated and unreferenced. 3. I have searched for "Wispelwey" under the ABC's website (abc.net.au) and find he is consistently referred to as Dutch. I could find no reference to claims that he is Australian.

I have no idea which author included this silly, dubious claim but it doesn't belong in Wikipedia. It's the sort of wild claim I would expect to see perhaps in something like a Murdoch publication but not in Wikipedia.
