New York event
“On 28 January 2012 the work is to be performed in New York at the Netherlands-based contemporary music festival "Gaudeamus Muziekweek". Ref: "Compositions by Dutch composer Michel van der Aa featured at Gaudeamus Muziekweek New York in the ISSUE Project Room" at dutchperformingarts.com
Given the rarity in performance of this piece, I had thought that any would be notable, but especially given the nationality of the performers in this case. It has, however, been “deleted as spam”. Is this because:
- (a) it’s not in a book;
- (b) the source is not WP:RS;
- (c) it’s a future event;
- (d) it’s an event advertised by a commercial organisation (albeit an international cultural one);
- (e) all of the above?
I have looked for an alternative source which might not be considered spam, but e.g. this one is only a blog. Perhaps we’ll just have to wait for an “in-depth review” some time after tomorrow night? Thanks. Martinevans123 (talk) 12:34, 27 January 2012 (UTC)

- I see the word "advertising", but not the word "future". Hmmm, I'm sure dutchperformingarts would get a huge financial boost from such a massive 24 hour promotion as this... "omg" Martinevans123 (talk) 18:13, 27 January 2012 (UTC)
- Well, if "future" isn't an issue, why not wait six months and then see whether mentioning this performance will help the reader better to understand this piece, or its place in history?—Jerome Kohl (talk) 19:39, 27 January 2012 (UTC)
- I think "future" usually is an issue, even though it doesn't appear in WP:SOAPBOX. I'm not sure this is the best place for a "reader" to come to "understand" any piece of music, especially six months after it's been performed. But who khows, it might be in the charts by then. We could put a 30 second sample in. Or maybe we should wait until it hasn't been played for a good ten years? Martinevans123 (talk) 20:01, 27 January 2012 (UTC)]

- Hope this works for you; there might be a neater way to do it, but if there is I don't know it. Very excited to discover this page btw, after working on other fluxus pieces.Franciselliott (talk) 10:15, 6 July 2012 (UTC)
