Discussion of fine and very as it applies to music/art

Some editors may not be aware that fine is an adjective commonly used with music and art. Very is another adjective that implies the highest level of that category. It is not a weasel word or puffery. Ronbo76 23:32, 19 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Soler's (not not his?) Fandango

In the article it says: A fandango once attributed to Soler, and probably more often performed than any other work by him, is now thought by some to be of doubtful authorship.

Is there any reference or source of information for this statement? --Thewizzy (talk) 14:59, 11 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

There is a claim (Samuel Rubio, Antonio Soler. Catálogo crítico) that Soler's Fandango wasn't written by him, but rather Domenico Scarlatti, but it's merely speculation, and now it's believed that Soler was inspired by Scarlatti for his piece, however, some technique he uses weren't ever used by Scarlatti. Maybe just clarify that, but i'd delete that fragment althogeter. DATrevino (talk) 00:35, 28 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

"Spanish" is a bit tone-deaf for someone recognised as a Catalan.

WHERE DID HE DIE?????????????? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 151.199.194.157 (talk) 14:34, 19 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

", which are comparable to those composed by Domenico Scarlatti[according to whom?]" According to all those few hundred thousand people round the world who take interest in baroque music, baroque keyboard music in particular, including prominent musicologists, who happen to know a few things about the subject. Incredible, isn't it ? --130.185.187.135 (talk) 12:36, 20 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Portrait

The article says that no portrait of Soler is extant. But what about the one on his IMSLP page? I have thus removed that claim from the article body. If anyone disputes, reverting is welcomed. Bored history geek (talk) 20:07, 1 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I guess you're refering to this image.

According to this source, that image corresponds to:

Imaginary portrait of Antonio Soler by Bartomeu Mas y Collellmir (1900-1980), painter from Olot, in 1965. Hall of sessions of the Town Hall of Olot.

It would be great if someone could upload it to Commons so it can be used here. Gor1995 (talk) 16:28, 6 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
