[edit] Vandalism on Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
Why are you reverting a fixed version back to a vandalized version stating that you are fixing vandalism (revert: vandalism, yet again. needs edit protection?)? --Zabadab 21:33, 17 October 2006 (UTC)
- Whoopsie. I feel quite ashamed - I wanted to revert to a correct version - it was my first revert ever, just figured out today how to do it. I apologize. -- John1987
- Don't worry about it. We all make mistakes. :) --Zabadab 21:51, 17 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Callas?
Hey Benjamin - you (re)added Maria Callas as a famous singer of the Queen of Night character. As far as I'm aware, Maria Callas did not possess the range needed to perform the Queen of the Night arias and certainly did not perform it professionally. Recordings going around p2p networks titled Maria Callas performing Der Hölle Rache etc. are falsely attributed to her. Thank you ~ User:john1987.
- Fair point - any recordings would certainly be from the begining of her career and in any case Callas was never really famous or notable for Mozart operas, more the romantics. B.S. 05 21:22, 6 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] "Physical Range" section on Vocal range page
Hi there. I just looked at the Vocal range page after a bit of a break and noticed a new section on "physical range" that I believe you added. (I try to keep an eye on the whole range nonsense because it constantly attracts both Mariah-Carey-lover types and kids who've just started taking voice classes and are convinced of their expertise on the subject.) Unfortunately, I'm rather confused by it. I can't figure out what distinction you're trying to make between the "physical" and "Basic range" section. The intervals you list in the "physical" section seem generally to be wider than those in the "basic" section, but I can't see any rhyme or reason in the choices. (E.g., the "physical" bass range starts at low C, which is extremely rarely called for in classical music, but only extends to D4, while even bass parts in choral music routinely call for an E4.) Can you give me a hand? Thanks. -George 00:29, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
