Talk:The Gala Ensemble

Notability issues
This article looks like advance PR, created by an account that mainly edits articles about Sony/BMG artists. There has been no significant coverage of this newly formed group, apart from re-prints of the press release for their first and not yet released CD in a couple of local UK papers. Likewise, the individual members do not have any significant press coverage, nor is there evidence that their careers are notable, e.g. major roles in prominent opera companies, etc. This article may well be a candidate for WP:AfD.

 * OK with me. It will be interesting, however, to see whether the CD sells well.  Not many professional G&S recordings have been distributed by major labels in recent years.  Maybe we should wait to see how the CD does, and if it's no big deal, then AfD the article.  -- Ssilvers (talk) 23:55, 30 October 2008 (UTC)


 * a lot of the material was sourced from the record company's website, which they've now taken down - The Gala Ensemble aren't listed on the Sony website anymore - so I've had to prune it all back. Searching around I couldn't find any reference to the group giving live performances or making further recordings. All the external links bar one are dead. That one only makes the briefest of mentions of this CD. They appear to be an ex-ensemble  almost - instinct 20:55, 21 March 2011 (UTC)

I was doubtful about this article when it was put up, but their album was #1 on the UK classical chart.... -- Ssilvers (talk) 21:36, 21 March 2011 (UTC)
