Elwes etc

Congratulations on your talk page. And thanks for your message!

I'm very interested about the two Elwes 'takes' of that song. J R Bennett's listing of AC 5577F just adds 'on C459 as Z 6936F' - the easy-to-find version I've got - and gives a date 3/13 which I suppose is an issue date. I did wonder if it might have been the same take somehow remastered for the 2-sided vsn but evidently it is a different performance. I've just never been able to find that disc - excellent isn't it? He must have re-made it because the last note sounds like 'broight' (which he wouldn't have liked) and possibly (from memory) he sings a different note on the word 'sheath', or at least a slightly different intonation? But in several ways I think it's better than the later one. How well it sounds in that room full of wonders on the video!

Could I ask, purely out of idle curiosity, where the recording dates come from? Cheers, Eebahgum (talk) 05:15, 29 April 2010 (UTC)

Thankyou. I wonder if the mis-takes survive?
Would you permit an external link to your webpage, and the mining of a little information, from your transcript from the Musical Times, to the London String Quartet page?
I think we share some interests: see User:Eebahgum/Articles originated (NB especially ones at the bottom of the page, under 'C') and User:Eebahgum/Articles substantially edited. I used to edit in my own name but found it restrictive and cumbersome. My articles are doubtless very flawed but when I began many of these people were not in Wikipedia at all, so I tried to set out the stall for some of them. It gives some direction to one's reading, and a little linguistic challenge now and then. I have just scraped together what I could, and fortunately people who knew better have added their ten bob's-worth as well. I am not up-to-date with modern discographical sources, but try to make up my own.
All the best, Eebahgum (talk) 08:50, 30 April 2010 (UTC)

Please update away - no ownership in Wikipedia! I have a full set (bar one 10") I believe of the standard double-sided commercial Columbias of G.E., including Cuckoo song, so if the shellac needs consulting please ask. The one I haven't got is Listen to the voice of Love/Brittany.
PS I don't know if you have followed my ramblings about the Roy Henderson recording of Sea Drift (find them in the Delius, Roy Henderson and Sea Drift (Delius) articles) but I would be quite interested in discussing that with you maybe at your website? Eebahgum (talk) 09:55, 30 April 2010 (UTC)

Delius

Hi, thanks for your comments. I wasn't aware of Cameron as a contender!! The problem was that Jelka Delius (Lionel Carley, Jelka Rosen Delius: Artist, Admirer and Friend of Rodin. The Correspondence 1.1900–1914 and 2.Concluded (Nottingham French Studies, Vol IX, 1970, pp. 16–30, 81–102)) said it was Anthony Bernard conducting: and another (S. Upton and M. Walker 1969 Delius discography) said it was Stanley Chapple. Philip Stuart, author of the Decca Classical discography, most recently said he thought it was Clifford, which seems to be the most likely. Eebahgum (talk) 12:18, 9 May 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for the date correction. That is one of my most frequent typos! -- Ssilvers (talk) 18:58, 2 July 2010 (UTC)

Penge

I entered Penge into Google Maps, and it gave a location somewhere in the middle of Bromley, which is wrong. Actually Penge is adjacent to the south end of Crystal Palace Park (which is probably why someone thought the Palace was in Penge!) Ning-ning (talk) 16:10, 13 May 2013 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Poor Butterfly, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Victor.
