==Tallis' O Nata Lux==
__TOC__
 
'''Archives:'''
Many thanks for your edition of Tallis' little gem O Nata Lux which I hope to peruade my local choir-master to use (I belong to a chamber choir and a traditional satb church choir.  I only hope that the tenors are up to being divided!).  I remember this beautiful piece from my treble days many years ago.  The version we used was distinctive for the wonderful dissonances in bar17 and in the penultimate bar.  These add so much to the poignancy of the music which matches the text so well.  Some editions have taken these out, which seems a great pity - I'm no musicologist, but I'm sure they should be there and I'm delighted that your edition retains them.  However, we always used to repeat bars 14-23 (as in the OUP Greening edtion), second time P or PP with a fair-sized, well big! Rall at the end - cheesy and possibly anachronistic, but it worked very well.  On another matter, I see your version of Let thy merciful ears you attribute to Weelkes.  I believe that this attribution has been challenged for a long time - it was based on a false assumption by Fellowes -  and that it is now thought to be by Thomas Mudd.  I expect that you know this and maybe your Weelkes attribution is for copyright purposes.  Anyway, thanks again for the Tallis. <small>—The preceding [[ChoralWiki:Signatures|unsigned]] comment was added by [[User:Roger Parker|Roger Parker]] ([[User talk:Roger Parker|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Roger Parker|contribs]]) on 12:46, 6 April 2006.</small>

== Weelkes' Mag and Nunc (6th service) ==
 
Hi John. Just a quick note to suggest that the additional CPDL #s for Weelkes' Mag and Nunc as seperate scores be removed. I think this should be done to avoid confusion (I originally thought that you had provided 3 PDFs: 1) Complete 2) Mag 3)Nunc). I just came across it whilst tidying the Weelkes page. Let me know what you think. Cheers, Rob [[User:Bobnotts|Bobnotts]] 12:55, 21 September 2006 (PDT)
 
== Correa ==
 
I'm looking at your score for Correa's [[O Vos Omnes (Carlos Correa)|O Vos Omnes]]. You show a one-sharp key signature. But the other edition I have, edited by Francis Jackson and supposedly based on a manuscript from Lisbon, has no key signature, so all the Fs are natural, giving it a more Phrygian feel. What's your source for the key signature? [[User:Choralnet|Choralnet]] 15:35, 29 January 2007 (PST)
 
== [[Mass for Four Voices (William Byrd)|Byrd Mass for Four Voices]] ==
 
Hi John. The link to your complete edition of the above points to your Benedictus of the setting rather than a full score. Dave had a look for the complete score on the server but to no avail. Just thought I'd let you know in case you didn't see the page. [[User:Bobnotts|Bobnotts]] 08:12, 18 February 2007 (PST)
 
== New Liebeslieder-Walzer by [[Johannes Brahms]] ==
 
Hi John, apparently you're responsible for the addition of a broken link to an hypothetical complete edition of the New Liebeslieder-Walzer, op. 65 (compare [http://www.cpdl.org/wiki/index.php?title=Johannes_Brahms&oldid=67442 Brahms' page as of October 1, 2006] with the previous revision.

== Last name redirects - check for more than one last name!!! ==
 
Hi John,
 
I just changed your redirect page Harris (pointing to the (unhosted) composer [[William H. Harris]]) to point to [[Harris (disambiguation)]] which I created, because the '''hosted''' composer [[Cuthbert Harris]] is already represented at CPDL.  I've been trying to chase down other possible composers and/or contributors at CPDL which might have last names coinciding with your last name redirects ... it is a frustrating process, because the last name redirect makes a search for the others very difficult.
 
Perhaps before creating last name redirects in the future, maybe you could do a search on the last name in question and see whether any other persons (composers, arrangers, editors, lyricists,...) share that last name; if so, then a disambiguation page should be created instead.
 
Originally, last name redirects were created for the most ''popular'' composers, and now it seems to be devolving into a last name redirect for everyone, including unhosted composers.  I am not at all sure that last name redirects for unhosted composers are needed, especially if a simple search on the last name will produce the composer page in question.  I didn't delete the Harris (redirect) page to try, but I'm guessing that with [[Harris]] deleted, a search on Harris would produce both William and Cuthbert.
 
Maybe I'm way off base here, and if you think this should be discussed in the forums, that's okay with me.  Anyway, thanks for putting up new composer pages, even if they are unhosted!! -- [[User:CHGiffen|Chuck]][[User talk:CHGiffen|<sub><small>'''talk'''</small></sub>]]&nbsp;[[User:Charles H. Giffen|Giffen]][[Charles H. Giffen|<sub>'''♫'''</sub>]] 02:28, 2 October 2007 (PDT)
 
: Hi again, John...  I got your reply on my talk page.  You didn't step on a Harris disambiguation page; instead, you made it '''necessary''' either (1) to '''delete''' the Harris redirect to Wm. H. Harris or (2) to '''create''' a Harris disambig page '''and change''' the Harris redirect to point to (newly created) Harris (disambiguation).  I chose to do the latter out of deference to your changes on the N.C.A.Book.  I have no qualms about making pages for unhosted composers (or to providing external links to where their works are published) ... my only concern is about the advisability of making last name redirects for such composers when a simple search on their last names will suffice (unless there just happen to be several composers with the same last name).  Good grief, I'm a composer, and (*grin*) I don't have a last name redirect!! -- [[User:CHGiffen|Chuck]][[User talk:CHGiffen|<sub><small>'''talk'''</small></sub>]]&nbsp;[[User:Charles H.

== [[Ruggero Leoncavallo]] ==
 
Hi John I've just restored the unhosted part of the composer cat for this page that you removed in a recent edit. I can't see any scores of this composer on CPDL which is why I restored the cat. Incidentally, I've just replied to your message on my talk page. --[[User:Bobnotts|Bobnotts]] <small>[[User talk:Bobnotts|'''talk''']]</small> 03:08, 8 October 2007 (PDT)
 
== Use of Templates delnow and delreq ==
 
Hi John.  I just changed your insertion of [[Template:delreq]] on [[Angel Gabriel (The) (Andy Miller)]] to get the template to work properly.  The delnow and delreq templates must be '''substituted''' ... that is to say, you must type:
: either <tt><nowiki>{{subst:delnow|</nowiki>''reason''|''user''}}</tt>
: or <tt><nowiki>{{subst:delreq|</nowiki>''reason''|''user''}}</tt>
Simply typing <tt><nowiki>{{delnow|</nowiki>''reason''|''user''}}</tt> or <tt><nowiki>{{delreq|</nowiki>''reason''|''user''}}</tt> doesn't work properly for putting the sort key (date stamp) in the appropriate category [[:Category:Delete immediately]] or [[:Category:Delete requests]].
 
I see you are doing a great job of getting the works in the various choral collections put up and linked (when present) to scores available here at CPDL.  You're doing a great job and it's a valuable service!  Many thanks. -- [[User:CHGiffen|Chuck]][[User talk:CHGiffen|<sub><small>'''talk'''</small></sub>]]&nbsp;[[User:Charles H.

== Please check the sheet music before putting up Template:a cappella ==
 
Hi John,
 
Before putting [[Template:a cappella]] on a score page, would you please check that all the scores on that page are indeed ''a cappella'' scores?  I've already removed the template from:
* [[Gesu Bambino (Pietro Yon)]]
* [[Merry Christmas Bells (Hermann Kotzschmar)]]
* [[Maud's Dream (Oliver Barton)]]
* [[Lullaby Dear Jesus (Lulajze Jesuniu) (Traditional)]]
* [[It Came Upon the Midnight Clear (Richard S. Willis)]]
I'm sure there are others, but I only just got going on correcting these.  (It was ''Gesu Bambino'' that caught my attention, since I used that piece last Christmas with my choir and knew it was accompanied.)
 
Also, I wonder, should standard 4-part hymns be categorized as ''a cappella''?  I'm not sure, since for the most part I'm used to hearing the accompanied in church.  Of course, I suppose most of them could be (and some are) sung ''a cappella'' on occasion.  It's a muddy area! -- [[User:CHGiffen|Chuck]][[User talk:CHGiffen|<sub><small>'''talk'''</small></sub>]]&nbsp;[[User:Charles H. Giffen|Giffen]][[Charles H. Giffen|<sub>'''♫'''</sub>]] 12:01, 22 October 2007 (PDT)
 
:Sorry Chuck.  I did the first 200 works from the Carols subcat.  If no instruments were listed, then I put in the A-cappella template.  I guess you found 5 that weren't.
 
:I'm working on the next 200 now.  I'll open up the score file before assuming a-cappella. As far as the "Grey area" if it has a piano reduction on separate staff I add "or keyboard" after the a-cappella template, and note it in the edition notes as "with piano reduction".  Works with just vocal lines I count as a-cappella.  I haven't done a round (cannon) yet, but suppose I make it a-cappella as well.

== [[Carols for Choirs 2]] ==
 
Hi John. I was just about to go and apply the collection template to this page but I've noticed that you've split the collection into different headings depending on the festival that they are suitable for (rather than alphabetical order by title). Did you have a particular rationale for doing this? I'm fairly ambivalent towards the organisation but it makes it slightly easier to apply the new style of page organisation if the contents are listed according to the number in the publication... Also, I'd have the title as "Carols for Choirs 2" or "Carols for Choirs Volume 2" rather than "Carols For Choirs-Vol2". What are your thoughts on that? Incidentally, you appear to have two user talk pages, this one and [[User talk:John Henry Fowler]]. Would you object to my merging them? I just think it's easier to have everything together on one page. All the best --[[User:Bobnotts|Bobnotts]] <small>[[User talk:Bobnotts|'''talk''']]</small> 05:10, 26 October 2007 (PDT)
 
:Only reason for the organization was that was the way Oxford had it for that volume.  Feel free to change.
 
:I log in as johnhenryfowler, and I think Chuck set up redirects already.
 
:The other username is an artifact from early days where my pswd was changed, and I just set up the johnhenryfowler account instead.  I've pretty much adapted this account name everywhere now, so to change it would be a pain.

::Thanks for getting back to me so quickly. I've just merged the talk pages so that all of the disucssion on [[User talk:John Henry Fowler]] is now here and [[User talk:John Henry Fowler]] is a redirect to this page.

:::Hi John. I've just been looking at this page and there are many discrepancies from what OUP say the contents are on their website and the contents page of my (old - pub. 1970) copy. For instance, "A babe is born I wys" is listed twice on the OUP list. Do you have a newer edition of the collection? --[[User:Bobnotts|Bobnotts]] <small>[[User talk:Bobnotts|'''talk''']]</small> 15:05, 4 November 2007 (PST)

== Using a cappella template ==
 
Hi John. I've just sorted the formatting of [[Where Riches is Everlastingly (Peter Warlock)|this page]]. It seems that you typed <tt><nowiki>{{a cappella}} or piano.</nowiki></tt> on the "Instruments" line but unfortunately the "or piano" part was knocked down onto the following line. This is because of a line break in the template. If you want to mark a score page as "a cappella or piano" in the future, may I suggest that you use the new template that I've just created? It is [[Template:a cappella or piano]] and outputs:<br><br>'''[EDIT (bobnotts 2007-11-16): template now deleted]'''<br><br>
You may find the "show preview" button useful when editing pages to see if the code that you have typed has translated into what you want to see on the page. I've re-edited a few pages that you have added lyrics to, etc., usually because you've forgotton to add the text template. I don't mind at all but it would save time if you could use the preview button and add it when you need to :-) Thanks --[[User:Bobnotts|Bobnotts]] <small>[[User talk:Bobnotts|'''talk''']]</small> 10:06, 27 October 2007 (PDT)
 
:Hi Bob, I'll start using the new template so the instuments are presented all on one line.  Sorry about some redundant saves, I'm often missing something I add later, and I've had some unfortunate saves where it informs me the session disconnected (and 2 hours of lyric entry is lost...) so I have been trying to save at least each time I am called away from the computer, or ever 1/2 hour or so.  The good news is I have looked at all 400 or so "Carols", and added lyrics to about 80% of them.  I did no edition combining because I have no idea what Standard to use to combine.  Some editions stray far away from the original carol, and even though they have the same name as the carol I'd keep them separate...  [[User:Johnhenryfowler|Johnhenryfowler]] 10:15, 27 October 2007 (PDT)
 
::John: I didn't mean to detract from what you've achieved over the past week (or two?); sorry if it seemed like that. Having all the texts of the carols is really useful for users (I know - I am a librarian for a choir that uses CPDL rather a lot!) and also, a person searching the internet for part of the text of a carol might stumble across CPDL, having never used it before. This is especially true as Christmas draws near! I understand your concern for losing work after the session is lost... I had this problem some time ago. Now, I get the error message saying that my session has timed out and I can't save the page but I can rescue the code, copy it to a notepad window, go back, click on "article" then "edit" then cut and paste and save successfully. Perhaps it's because of having the latest version of Internet Explorer... I'm not sure. In any case, clicking on "Show preview" seems to refresh the session, so to speak, so you could try that. Ha ha, ironically, my session just timed out... and I did exactly what I just suggested. As for merging pages, often these need to be judged on a case by case basis. I'll crib a merge template from Wikipedia for use here and let you know when I've got it working... --[[User:Bobnotts|Bobnotts]] <small>[[User talk:Bobnotts|'''talk''']]</small> 10:52, 27 October 2007 (PDT)
 
== Reverted edit ==
 
Hi John. I just reverted your edit to [[Duets from Orpheus Britannicus (Henry Purcell)]] in which you added a link to the editor's website. I removed that link in a previous edit because I don't think that it's appropriate to have any links to a site which hosts (potentially) illegal content from a page about that content on CPDL. --[[User:Bobnotts|Bobnotts]] <small>[[User talk:Bobnotts|'''talk''']]</small> 13:14, 6 November 2007 (PST)
 
 
I got the link to his website from his user page.  I got to his user page by clicking on his editor: link on the
works page for [[Duets from Orpheus Britannicus (Henry Purcell)]] Do we remove all user's WWW links from CPDL because he hosts on his website a work wich might be copyrighted ?  A user could go to any works page Mr Hossell put up to "discover" his WWW site.  A google search would probably work to dicover it too.  The next step would be to
tell the contributer to remove the questionable file from his WWW site.  I think this is a bit to draconian.

== Links to score files from new hymn tune score pages ==
 
Hi John. I just noticed a broken link on one of the new hymn tunes that you added. Then I went to check the rest of the new score pages and found a plethora of broken links. I have corrected the following:
*[[Epiphany (Samuel Sebastian Wesley)]]
*[[Engedi (Samuel Sebastian Wesley)]]
*[[Eternity (Samuel Sebastian Wesley)]]
*[[Alleluia (Samuel Sebastian Wesley)]]
*[[Day-star (Samuel Sebastian Wesley)]]
*[[Cambridge (Samuel Sebastian Wesley)]]
*[[Colchester (Samuel Sebastian Wesley)]]
*[[Grosvenor (Samuel Sebastian Wesley)]]
 
and I have noted that the following have broken links but I don't have the time to fix them at the moment (and there may be more):
*[[Harewood (Samuel Sebastian Wesley)]]
*[[Hawarden (Samuel Sebastian Wesley)]]
*[[Hereford (Samuel Sebastian Wesley)]]
*[[Hornsey (Samuel Sebastian Wesley)]]
*[[Ellingham (Samuel Sebastian Wesley)]]
*[[Houghton-le-Spring (Samuel Sebastian Wesley)]]
*[[Leyden (Samuel Sebastian Wesley)]] (MIDI file)
*[[Morning (Samuel Sebastian Wesley)]] (NoteWorthy Composer file)
 
I know this is a simple spelling error in your uploads but would you please double check the links in the future? It would save a lot of time. Good job otherwise for indexing all these hymns on CPDL, will be a really useful resource. --[[User:Bobnotts|Bobnotts]] <small>[[User talk:Bobnotts|'''talk''']]</small> 03:44, 15 November 2007 (PST)
 
:Sorry to trouble you with broken links, but I was in the middle of my updates when I needed to call it a night, and, of course you jumped on the task of checking them before I was done.  I always check out each link from each page when I'm done.  (I'm done up through "Morning" in SSWesley's list.)

::That's ok - this is a collaborative effort after all :-) I didn't realise that you went through a process of adding a bulk of scores then checking the links - sorry for butting in.

Well, before I'm done I want to make the NWC file cleaner, and will
be editing them - hence "Editor".  I'll also be adding a Sibelius edition for my favorites.  I think "Editor" is best, since the value added is the works page, and the Cyber Hymnal credit is built into each page anyway in two places.  I don't feel strongly either way.  The quandry was that since the Cyber Hymnal didn't actively contribute (but allows their use specifically through their PD copyright terms), them I didn't want to list them as the "Editor" - quite apart from the fact that they ( Cyber-Hymnal) aren't a "person", and the "Editor" should be someone at the end of an email address who is "responsible" for the edition... [[User:Johnhenryfowler|Johnhenryfowler]] 05:23, 16 November 2007 (PST)
 
:I understand why you didn't add Cyber-Hymnal as the editor, the reason that you give for that is a good one to my mind. However, I disagree with your assertion that the term "editor" should be denoted because of the "value added" to the score page. As far as I'm concerned, the name in the edition info refers to that individual edition, not to whatever extra information has been added to the score page. If you alter the NWC files to make them cleaner then I think you should be considered the editor because that would be a new edition. But when you copy the files from one site to another, I don't believe that makes you an editor because you have not altered the files. I maintain that I think the term "Contributor" would be best until/unless you alter the files; then you become an "Editor" in my opinion because it would be a new edition. Don't get me wrong - I think all the work that you're doing to add hymns to CPDL is great but I think we should be completely open about this notion of being an "editor" on CPDL. --[[User:Bobnotts|Bobnotts]] <small>[[User talk:Bobnotts|'''talk''']]</small> 07:54, 16 November 2007 (PST)
 
Hi Bob,  As I said before, Editor: / Contributer: / Grunt:, whatever.  There are 51 hymn pages I have done, and
if you would like to change all 51 already submitted pages I'll make the new ones say whatever you want.  It is not important to me.  I am the editor of 150 or so "real" editions in Encore, Finale, and Sibelius. I have been "open" about the submitted hymns, giving credit on the individual works pages, as well as the "Deep Link" to the Cyber Hymnal page that Noel hates. Since whatever we call this: Editor: / Contributer: / Grunt:, whatever, this should be
a new "Standard", so I'd get the other admins to OK whatever the term we use for "A contributer who has added a work which was not (yet) edited by that person, but none the less took the time to make the works page, annotate the links on the composer page, make the PDF file, and add the lyrics to the page, and format the lyrics".  When I clean up the NWC files I'll change the notation from "Contributer" to "Editor" (personally I'm favoring Grunt... - just kidding... ) [[User:Johnhenryfowler|Johnhenryfowler]] 08:55, 16 November 2007 (PST)
 
== Adding hymns ==
 
Hi John. As I went to check the latest discussion about how to organise hymns on CPDL, it occured to me that when the discussion has concluded, it may be necessary to alter your new hymn tune pages in line with the new standard. Do you think it would be better to hold off adding any more hymns until a standard is agreed? That way, there wouldn't have to be a lot of duplication of work... just a thought.
 
Also, I've just seen [[Ralph Vaughan Williams]] and seen how you've organised the hymns into an indented numbered list. Is this the chronological order that Vaughan Williams composed the tunes or have you numbered them for some other reason? --[[User:Bobnotts|Bobnotts]] <small>[[User talk:Bobnotts|'''talk''']]</small> 04:01, 21 November 2007 (PST)
 
It just acted to "count" the number of hymns.  It is an alphabetical list.  As far as holding off entering
any new hymns, I'm inclined just to continue doing what I'm doing.  At least it is all done the same way,
and there are the other 485 hymns to change anyway.  Getting a standard written down would then allow
me to go back and reorganize (knowing it's not a waste of time...)  Talking about waste of time, do we
know if the work of the last 2 months ever got backed up?  [[User:Johnhenryfowler|Johnhenryfowler]] 04:17, 21 November 2007 (PST)

Hi John. I've just deleted the page which you recently restored, [[Sie, wie ist die Welle klar, Op. 52, No. 14 (Johannes Brahms)]], because it is an almost exact duplicate of the score page for the work which already exists and is correctly named, it is here: [[Sieh, wie ist die Welle klar, Op. 52, No. 14 (Johannes Brahms)]].

== Brahms alphabetical page ==
 
Hi John. I've just seen the work you've been doing over at Brahms' corner of CPDL - it looks great! I was just going to suggest splitting the main [[Johannes Brahms|Brahms]] page into 2 sections - choral works & solo vocal works - to help users find the sort of music they want.

Splitting on this basis would split up works like the Liebeslieder and the Neue Liebeslieder, which have both
solo and chorus.  Perhaps we could group the collections together in a page to reduce the number on a page. (Of course this means searching through more than one page when looking alphabetically for a particular work...)  [[User:Johnhenryfowler|Johnhenryfowler]] 12:22, 10 February 2008 (PST)

I just finished the 15th lieder in Brahms's Neues Liebeslieder - Opus 65 It is now complete!!!

Hi John. Great to see all of your new Parry editions popping up. I noticed you added a link to Google Books from [[The Pied Piper of Hamelin (Charles Hubert Hastings Parry)]] but for the life of me, I can't find where to view the score. Could you enlighten me?

The built-in link for Parry's "The Pied Piper Of Hamelin" is:

== Sabine Cassola's new editions ==
 
Hi John. Thanks for posting Sabine Cassola's latest editions - I wonder if you could clarify a point. At the moment, the score pages read "Finale 6". I've never heard of a Finale 6 and from what I've seen, the different versions of the software are always followed by a year, not a single number, eg "Finale 2006". Is that what you meant? --[[User:Bobnotts|Bobnotts]] <small>[[User talk:Bobnotts|'''talk''']]</small> 23:53, 28 May 2008 (PDT)
 
:Finale 6  is same as Finale 2006 - just shorthand - and I prefer Fin6 ultimately. Sibelius 4 I abbreviate as Sib4, unless I'm confusing it with Finale and using Sibelius 2004. I'd suggest we abbreviate in future.  NOTEWORTHY COMPOSER  should be NWC, etc But most impostant is to get Add-Work script working again so we don't have to remember all this detail to post. [[User:Johnhenryfowler|Johnhenryfowler]] 00:06, 29 May 2008 (PDT)
 
::Thanks for clarifying that, John. I've moved your reply here because, as I've exaplained at the top of my talk page, I like to group messages together to keep the discussion together and make things clearer - please reply here. I have to say that I disagree with your shorthand suggestion - as was proved by my confusion, most users won't assume that "Finale 6" means "Finale 2006", or, even worse "Fin6" if they haven't heard of Finale. Likewise, NoteWorthy Composer is not a well known piece of software and if a user hasn't heard of it, they won't make the connection between "NWC" and NoteWorthy Composer. I think if this were introduced as a standard, it would be a further stumbling block for new users trying to understand how the site works so I suggest that all names be written out in full to avoid confusion. --[[User:Bobnotts|Bobnotts]] <small>[[User talk:Bobnotts|'''talk''']]</small> 00:28, 29 May 2008 (PDT)
 
::: I agree with Rob.  Finale 200X IS Finale 200X (not FinX).  Likewise, NoteWorthy Composer (note the proper use of upper and lower case) IS NoteWorthy Composer (not NWC, not NOTEWORTHY COMPOSER).  LilyPond IS LilyPond (not LY, not Lilypond, not LILYPOND).  And Sibelius X IS Sibelius X (not SIBX, not SibX, not SIBELIUSX not SibeliusX).  In other words, we should respect and use the orthography of names as used by the software suppliers.  Many users (especially those using software from a foreign source) will not necessarily know the abbreviations, and I submit that, in the matter of software orthography (and in other matters), we should strive for a uniform, across-the-board, appearance.  If not then I've spent many hours in vain changing NOTEWORTHY COMPOSER to NoteWorthy Composer, SIBELIUS to Sibelius, ENCORE to Encore, Lilypond to LilyPond, FINALE to Finale, etc. -- [[User:CHGiffen|Chuck]][[User talk:CHGiffen|<sub><small>'''talk'''</small></sub>]]&nbsp;[[User:Charles H.

== Quem vidistis, pastores? ==
 
Hi John! Sorry, I didn't notice you were still editing the cited score page and created a similar one for your score. It seems the correct is indeed the above title, without the exclamation "O". I also made a few corrections to Orazio Vecchi's page with regards to his image size. -- [[User:Carlos|Carlos]]<sup><small>[[User talk:Carlos|Talk]]</small></sup> 13:57, 23 June 2008 (PDT)
 
:Hi Carlos!  Thanks for your help.  I'm adding scores done by Sabine Cassola (Rome, Italy) who has difficulty posting, so I do it for her.  She Postal-Mailed a CD ROM with over 200 scores which I have been busy posting.  I can only manage 2-3 scores a day.  It also puts me at a disadvantage, since I know nothing about the origins of the score. 
 
:I made a composer page for "Horatio Vecchi" (the way it is in the score is Horatius Veccius) only to find the existing composer page titled "Oratio Vecchi".  The score was titled: "I  Quem vidistis Pastores" but the Finale file named "1 Vecchi, O. Quem vidistis.mus", so I mistakenly named it "O Quem Vidistis (Horatio Vecchi)" when it should have been "Quem Vidistis (Oratio Vecchi)"
 
:I am about to start posting 30 or so scores from "Florilegium sacrarum cantionum - Petri Phalesij 1609", which I guess is a collection of music published by Netherlands music publisher "Petri Phalesij" in 1609  (Italian:Petri Phalesij, French:Pierre Phalèse or Latin:Petrus Phalesius)
 
:The Dutch Wikipedia (translated via babelfish) has the following info: Pierre Phalèse, including Petrus, Peeter or Pieter Phalesius or Ned. Pieter van der Phaliezen (born circa 1510 - deceased in 1573), was a music publisher and printer from the Netherlands. Componist is hij waarschijnlijk nooit geweest, al associeert men de anonieme dansen die hij in de jaren 1570 uitgeeft meestal wel met hem als componist. Composer he probably never has been, whether we associate the anonymous dancing in the years that he spends most of 1570 with him as a composer.
 
:The set probably should have a "Collection Page" made for the "Florilegium sacrarum cantionum" similar to the page I made for Palestrina - [http://www.cpdl.org/wiki/index.php/Canticum_Canticorum_%28Giovanni_Pierluigi_da_Palestrina%29 Canticum Canticorum]
 
:My next posting piece is: Franciscus Bianciardus 1570 - 1607  - Composer of Number 2 of the set from "Florilegium sacrarum cantionum" - which is titled "Surgite pastores". What is the proper composer name:  Fransisco Bianciadi ?  So the works page should be "Surgite pastores (Fransisco Bianciadi)"?

== Phalesius ==
Hi John
First of all, congrats on your prolific output over the past few days and weeks.  Wonderful to see all that valuable music become available on CPDL.
One small question, though: you mention your last contribution as having been published by <i>Petri Phalesij</i>.  I'm pretty convinced that should be Petr<b>us</b> Phalesi<b>us</b>, since that is the nominative case in Latin.  The possessive which you use probably stems from some sort of title or dedication mentioning that the book was published <i>by</i> Phalesius or in Phalesiu<i>s'</i> establishment, hence the case marking.  Cordially, [[User:Jkelecom|joachim]] 07:00, 24 June 2008 (PDT)
 
It's a good point.  If I were using his LATIN name your choice is correct, but what name to use. In this translated-from-the-Dutch [http://translate.google.com/translate?hl=en&sl=nl&u=http://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Petrus_Phalesius&sa=X&oi=translate&resnum=5&ct=result&prev=/search%3Fq%3DPetri%2BPhalesij%26start%3D10%26hl%3Den%26rlz%3D1T4ADBS_enUS251US251%26sa%3DN%26pwst%3D1 WikiPedia page] on this flemish publisher it says "Pierre Phalèse, including Petrus, Peeter or Pieter Phalesius or Ned. Pieter van der Phaliezen (born circa 1510 - deceased in 1573), was a music publisher and printer from the Netherlands."  In [http://www.cpdl.org/wiki/images/5/51/No1-O_Quem_Vidistis_Pastores.pdf Sabines score] she says "Florilegium sacrarum cantionum - Petri Phalesij 1609", so I used her name for the guy.  Is it Italian ?  Flemmish ?  I've no idea, but it is what is in her scores....

:: Hi John, thanks for that clarification.  Your answer confirmed my assumption that the name you used is in possessive case because of the particular wording in the title of the work.  Whether you use his French, Dutch or Latin name, Phalesi<b><u>j</u></b> could never be the guy's name.  As for the daunting editing job ahead of you: much as I regret it, I've sort of taken the approach of not editing anything on cpdl as long as the contribution and editing processes haven't been finalised (or at least finetuned).  Still, keep up the good work.

: The two Charpentier editions above are different, in that old one is a condensed score, and the new one is a full score. -- [[User:CHGiffen|Chuck]][[User talk:CHGiffen|<sub><small>'''talk'''</small></sub>]]&nbsp;[[User:Charles H.

:::John, I wasn't disputing the fact that all of the links you added pointed to ASC pages which exist, just that there wasn't a score scanned by David Newman available on those pages. There were indeed ASC pages for the score pages that I listed above, but they simply pointed to other resources available elsewhere on the web (and still do). PS.

Voicing info on title

Hi John! I noticed you've been creating a few pages with "a 8", "a 10" etc. on the title. Do you think it's necessary? I usually only put voicing info on titles when it is necessary to distinguish two works by the same composer that have different number of voices; in all other situations I prefer the shorter, simpler title without it. But I guess there's no rule here at CPDL about it, it's a matter of taste. -- CarlosTalk 11:46, 29 June 2008 (PDT)

Hi Carlos, I'm actually not a proponent of the "a n", disignations, but merely following what Sabane had used as a title. I've omitted "a 4" because it's really not needed on a SATB work. If you do want to rename, just rename the display name, not the source name, so reloads will work. ie: Ave Maria Johnhenryfowler 12:48, 29 June 2008 (PDT)

Now I saw that Sabine used the "a n" designations inside the PDFs too, so perhaps we should leave the titles the way she conceived them. By the way, do you want me to create a composer page for "Faux des Spickable"? (just kidding! where did you take this crazy name from? :) -- CarlosTalk 13:16, 29 June 2008 (PDT)

Big task? - No problem!

Montecassino Ms-Adoramus te Domine PDF & MIDI files

Hi John. You never got back to me about what files I was supposed to make PDFs and MIDs for, but after much searching, I finally found Montecassino Ms-Adoramus te Domine.mus which says it is a Finale 2007 file, so I've made the following files:

File:Montecassino Ms-Adoramus te Domine.MID

File:Montecassino Ms-Adoramus te Domine.pdf

I hope these were the ones you wanted. -- Chucktalk Giffen 10:20, 3 July 2008 (PDT)

Adding editions which aren't available (yet)

Hi John. Great to see all these links to Art Song Central popping up. Unfortunately, on looking at one of the works page on ASC, I found that the work you indexed into CPDL isn't actually available there, though apparently it will be coming in the future. I have commented out all the edition info for ASC on the following pages:

I don't think it's a good idea to add links to sites for a resource that isn't there yet, even if it will be added soon. A user who comes to the CPDL works page from the "Most recent scores" list expecting to find a score or link to one would be disappointed. I suggest that you don't add score entries for works that aren't available. --Bobnotts talk 08:49, 13 July 2008 (PDT)

For what it's worth, the lack of links on ASC's Come raggio di sol was due to a faulty edit I made last night to remove a dead link. I have now replaced the information. The others in your list link to external sites. Two to Project Gutenberg, and two, if I recall correctly offhand to WIMA. Rather than remove those valuable resources from CPDL's links, it would be reasonable to link directly to those sites. I don't ever make song posts for material that is not immediately accessible. In any case, I thank both of you for your good work here. (And Bob, I hope I haven't caused hard feelings by my reaction to your post on IMSLP.) --David Newman talk 12:52am, 14 July 2008 (EST)
For what it's worth all the posting worked when I posted them, and they all pointed to pages at ASC. Welcome to cyberspace? Johnhenryfowler 10:52, 16 July 2008 (PDT)
John, I wasn't disputing the fact that all of the links you added pointed to ASC pages which exist, just that there wasn't a score scanned by David Newman available on those pages. There were indeed ASC pages for the score pages that I listed above, but they simply pointed to other resources available elsewhere on the web (and still do). PS.

Now that I understand your objection, I agree with you. Where the PDF file is not ASC's generated file, but rather a pointer to a different source, I will use the original source, and put the ASC pointer in the external links area of the works page.
