- Not really. That sort of distortion is basically caused by the recording going beyond what the technology can handle. I can't say if it's the cylinder or the scanning cylinder reader (they generally don't play them anymore, they use a scanner) that causes the problem, but either way.

Eine kleine Nachtmusik (1 File)
- From Tony1 on the original roll call thread; "as I commented above, boxy acoustic feel, the first chord is just horrid. Some good things about the performance, even though on modern instruments and with too much vibrato than is now normally acceptable. I’d use on the main page only if desperate."
- I see your points, but am ambiguous on how it adds up. Adam Cuerden
- Neutral something just sounds wrong about this recording that I can't put my finger on. --Guerillero | My Talk 01:08, 25 February 2011 (UTC)
- I wouldn't call the first chord "horrid", but yea it's not great. Indeed vibrato is a bit strong. Overall agree with Tony. Jujutacular talk 04:17, 8 March 2011 (UTC)

- Not sure on this one. Does the historical importance of it being his piano roll and showcasing the syphallis outweigh the fact that it's played wrong? Wha? 17:13, 23 February 2011 (UTC)]
- Support -
I've got to mention that I was the original nominator and uploader. I appreciate what you mean by the quality of the playing. However I would argue that it is of historical interest as it is a performance by a major figure in American music of the early 20th Century, and illustrates the health problems he experienced later in life. IMO the historical importance of this recording trumps any problem with the performance in musical terms. It is important to note that this comes from a piano roll which was not edited, as was the usual practice at the time, so it is likely to be as close as we can get to the reality of Joplin's playing. Of course there is still the possibility that someone may not like the piano sound; feel free to do another version based on the source MIDI file. I can't do it myself as I no longer have access to Cubase. Major Bloodnok (talk) 22:53, 2 March 2011 (UTC)I got confused about the purpose of this page; I think it would be worthwhile if it were a clear explanation on the description page. But as Sven notes above, there is a risk that without clarity it may be seen merely as a bad performance (which it is in some ways). Of the two Joplin rolls we have I would go for Pleasant Moments in the first instance as it was unknown until its discovery by a NZ collector recently, and sounds better because it has been heavily edited before publication.

- Oppose I must agree - the tempo is all over the place and while it is nice that he pianist has put in some of his own flourishes, the playing is just too uncertain. I must admit I would also be in favour of reassessing the FS status of this. Major Bloodnok (talk) 19:49, 4 March 2011 (UTC)

Frédéric Chopin wrote his Cello Sonata in G minor, Op. 65 in 1846. It is one of only nine works of Chopin published during his lifetime that were written for instruments other than piano (although the piano still appears in every work he wrote). Chopin composed four sonatas, the others being all piano sonatas. The cello sonata was the last of Chopin's works to be published in his lifetime.
The sonata was written for and dedicated to Auguste Franchomme, and it was played by Franchomme and Chopin at the composer's last public concert, at the Salle Pleyel on 16 February 1848.
This performance is by John Michel and Lisa Bergman.

- Oppose but do not Delist I agree with Sven. In addition, I think that there is no problem with having FSes and deciding not to have them on the main page - Featured Pictures has a page detailing which FPs won't be displayed and why. Having a translation on the main page would be problematic for obvious space reasons, and besides which this is an English language Encyclopaedia.

I checked the web-site this came from, and the source MP3 is 64Kbps, which is not CD quality. It's a real shame. Hopefully there will be another recording online somewhere of higher quality. For old recordings I think low quality can be forgiven, but for recent, broadcast recordings, poor quality is not really on.
