Talk:Miserere (Allegri)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Title

The actual title of this article is Míserére Méi, Déus. As this is a low traffic article, I am going to change it myself when no one replies. Any thoughts on this? --Adriaan90 16:35, 8 November 2006 (UTC)


Seems to me that Miserere is the most commonly used title, as a google will confirm. I agree that the full title should be included at the beginning of the article, but believe it best serves readers to use the common title, increasing accessibility.

Thanks for the help Adriaan90! I came onto this site looking for the exact name (I had a vague idea...) of this ethereal piece of music for an essay. When I couldn't find it I was coming onto this page to say "how ridiculous they don't have the full name of the Miserere listed!!!" and found my answer instead! Although it is still ridiculous it's not listed! Helen

Seems to me, at the very least, it should be cross-referenced to both titles. Bert —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.192.196.226 (talk) 18:00, 7 September 2007 (UTC)

Agree with Helen, I looked for this under the ACTUAL title. Cross reference Please! Liz —Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.70.154.206 (talk) 10:45, 21 March 2008 (UTC)

This is a very beautiful piece of music, is there some way that can be expressed? I also have a link that should be put on, its a youtube video of this being performed by King's College Choir and its absolutely beautiful. --216.229.227.144 (talk) 14:05, 24 April 2008 (UTC)

I am curious if anyone ever compared Mozart's "bootleg" transcription with the score released by Vatican. Not that I suspect that Mozart made mistakes, but just to see how faithful his transcription was to the original. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 208.3.69.196 (talk) 16:57, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
