Talk:Violinist

So to be on the 20th C list you have to be dead, right?? I was a little confused by this, it's not that long ago ... :) Nevilley 11:09 Mar 1, 2003 (UTC)

I'm not sure it's a very useful distinction. I'm going to merge the two into one. --Camembert

Excellent composer-violinists

"Composer-violinists were common in the Baroque era - all played the violin excellently." Is it just me, or does this read a little OTT? Nevilley 10:58, 7 Mar 2004 (UTC)

No response to this. I am removing the phrase and hope that this is OK, or that someone will defend it or suggest a form of wording which works better. Nevilley 09:23, 18 Mar 2004 (UTC)

Violin Hickey

"Sometimes violinists can be identified by a red fleck on the left side of their neck, commonly known as the violin hickey."

Is this really important enough to have in this article? As well, it sounds odd to say they can be "identifed" by these.
