Talk:Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov

Orchestral

A well known peice that is attributed to Nikoli is Dance of the Tumblers, played often in middle and high school orchestras.

R: That's actually "Dance of the Skomorokhi" from Rimsky-Korsakov's opera Snowmaiden, Act III. Perhaps the Workslist should include a sub-category for "famous orchestral excerpts." (Fifi)

In my Wikieducation today I learned about the proper use of lists. So I removed the prospective list of Rimsky's works from this article to create a proper list outside of it. Given that this was a major act of cleaning up the article, I removed the "clean-up" template that had been inserted this month. Mademoiselle Fifi 23:30, 18 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Major Literary Works

The current listing of his literary works is missing the critical information about when he wrote them. The dates all refer to publication of (mostly later) editions, which is nice, but when we need to include when he wrote each and when they were FIRST published, please. --QwertyAZ 10:03, 11 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
