Dinah Shore made a recording of this song with the Paul Weston Orchestra in New York in October 1940. Therefore is "1941" correct? IXIA (talk) 21:07, 28 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Cavos as original?

[edit]

The source provided in the article does not support the suggestion that the Ukrainian folk song was based on Cavos' oeuvre, it's rather vice versa as the book says that Cavos used Ukrainian folk tunes while writing his opera. 93.73.63.191 (talk) 07:37, 24 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

There are other sources that say otherwise. What in fact happened was the Cavos' tunes became folk ones. In fact Ukrainian published song collections usually put it in the "folk songs with literary sources" section.--Aristophile (talk) 21:03, 24 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
It may be so, but I've yet to see the relevant source. There's a new reference in the article now, but it is unclear what it says. 93.73.63.191 (talk) 01:40, 28 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
UPDATE: I've found the source provided. It only says that Cavos' opera marked the first time when the song tune was used for the stage performance, but it's still implied that it's of the folk origin. So we've basically got two sources in the article now which in fact support the statement opposite to the one currently in the text. 93.73.63.191 (talk) 10:45, 28 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
UPDATE2: Yet another source has been provided, and yet again all it really says is that Cavos used Ukrainian folk tunes in his opera... Вечный подмастерье (talk) 03:42, 3 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
