 * Keep and tag for additional refs and inline citations. The article on the Quintetto Chigiano was written as a "starter" stub several years ago, and needs more adequate verification sources listed inline: I agree. However it was certainly a notable classical ensemble, and if the page is removed it will in due course be necessary to replace it. As it stands, the reference listed under "Sources" as Sackville-West and Shawe-Taylor, together with the selection of Decca recordings listed with their reference data, ought to be sufficient to verify their notability for the purposes of a "stub", which this is. I suggest that, rather than deletion, it would be more useful and appropriate to tag the page with a request for (a) additional references and (b) more specific inline citation, and allow a further amount of additional time for these to be found and added.Eebahgum (talk) 14:32, 29 July 2022 (UTC)
 * I have enlarged the data and improved the references. Eebahgum (talk) 17:01, 31 July 2022 (UTC)


 * Keep. I added two refs to their recordings, from notable publishers. Reading this, I understand that Ginastera dedicated a work to them. Notable, no doubt. Just improve the article. I have no time right now. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 15:08, 29 July 2022 (UTC)
 * adding: lettherebedarklight, I consider this nomination an unfunny joke. This isn't a band but a Classical music ensemble, - please inform that project. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 15:11, 29 July 2022 (UTC)
 * @Gerda Arendt: wp:nband states Musicians or ensembles (emphasis mine).

 * Keep – dozens of mentions just in the British press, including:
 * "a very notable chamber consort from Italy … [playing] with unanimity, extreme subtlety, and easy mastery that made their playing a delight to the ear" – The Times, 22 January 1949
 * "a team ranked among the finest players in Europe" – The Times, 24 October 1951
 * "The Italian Quintetto Chigiano has achieved a remarkable reputation in London for homogeneity, interpretation and technical ability" – Liverpool Echo, 24 October 1951
 * "one of the most notable ensembles in the history of chamber music" – Belfast Telegraph, 7 September 1959
 * "the incomparable Quintetto Chigiano in Dvořák's Piano Quintet, a performance so glorious that one feels one has never heard the work before" – Birmingham Daily Post, 13 December 1951
 * Notable beyond question.  Tim riley  talk   17:31, 29 July 2022 (UTC)
