I'm removing all occurences of "attacca" in the tempo markings of movements. A Dover miniature score ([1]; looks rather reliable to me) doesn't have any attaccas anywhere, as far as I can see. Perhaps the editor of some edition of a more "edited" nature put them there, not considering the absence of pauses or fermatas clear enough, and a contributor used such an edition. (On a sidenote, by my reasoning, they wouldn't belong there anyway, since "attacca" describes how one movement--or part of one--follows after another, not the tempo of the movement itself. That's irrelevant, though, and perhaps more subjective.) EldKatt (Talk) 17:42, 13 September 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Disambiguation needed

There are several other works bearing the term Pastoral/Pastorale - a disambiguation is needed. Bob aka Linuxlad 23:15, 22 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Initial reception

The article says that the symphony was not well-received at the premiere, being overshadowed by the excitement caused by its more flamboyant counterpart (the 5th symphony); but the article for the 5th says that there was little critical response to the premiere performance. Worth sorting out this contradiction, if somebody has access to the references. --VinceBowdren 00:12, 13 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fantasia

I think the article could mention the Symphony's appearence in the animated Disney Film. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Surten (talk • contribs) 05:30, 19 December 2007 (UTC)
