In the "Scoring" section, horns are listed twice. I suspect the second reference was supposed to be trombones; can someone confirm this and correct as appropriate? - Engineer Bob 05:20, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

Fixed to to trombones. Justin Tokke 14:56, 20 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] External links and NPOV

Shouldn't we have a few ex-links, to some recordings, maybe? Also, the part about the symphony being a flop doesn't seem to be completely neutral; should it be changed perhaps to "failure"? —  $PЯINGεrαgђ  17:11, 6 October 2006 (UTC)

The failure really took place in the premiere (I red about it in "memorials abot R.") but the cause was Glazunov's phlegmatic temperament wich is terrible for such emotional sympfony (Glazunov wasn't drunk). For links to recordings see ukrainian version --A4 08:04, 16 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit]  ?

I had always read that Rachmaninov tore up the manuscript of the symphony. Has this been proved not the case? —  $PЯINGεrαgђ  15:31 7 May 2008 (UTC)
