Talk:Percy Grainger
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Some sources I saw say his full name was "George Percy Grainger", others "Percy Aldridge Grainger". Can someone straighten this out? Wondering simply, -- Infrogmation 18:40 28 Jun 2003 (UTC)
Someone (208.187.9.24) replaced "Australian-born" by "Australian" and removed the English references in the categories. Since Grainger moved to England when he was 13 and to the US when he was 32, I think the previous designations were fair and in fact we should add the American category (the other day the bass trombonist for my orchestra told me he had played under Grainger in a Massachusetts youth orchestra, and he had thought of PG as American).
