editThe link from Howard Barlow directs to a different Howard Barlow, not a music conductor. GHankStewartGhankstewart (talk) 13:37, 9 April 2016 (UTC)

controversy over marin alsop's appointment
editthe current section on marin alsop's appointment ("becoming the first woman in history to lead a major American orchestra" ... "At first, this created controversy") seems to say that "becoming the first woman" is the antecedent of "this", and that the orchestra members objected because she was a woman. see whether my version seems any better.

Correct. This was not the controversy. The players of the orchestra belived they were left out in the cold when it came time to choose a new director and, as I recall, found her appointment without their input to be in violation of their contracts. Gingermint (talk) 06:13, 31 August 2010 (UTC)
Alsop v. Faletta
editthe statements re marin alsop and joann faletta are obviously contradictory. one of them has to go.Toyokuni3 (talk) 02:47, 18 June 2008 (UTC)
Infobox?
editThe infobox for the orchestra is, in my view, just about completely useless. "Associated acts"? What on earth would they be for an orchestra? And are the only musicians in the orchestra those listed here? Of course not. That template was designed for pop performers; the consensus at the classical music project here in WP-land has been to remove these boxes. I will do so unless there is a huge outcry within the next day or two. --Wspencer11 (talk to me...) 23:15, 2 November 2009 (UTC)

"Baltimore SO"
editCurious why the article refers to it by the shortened name "Baltimore SO" rather than "BSO." I've never heard anyone say Baltimore SO -- we call it the BSO! Can we change that? Edit: aha, I see it's so it doesn't get confused with other orchestras that go by BSO. Makes sense, just strange to see it called something I've never heard anyone call it haha 69.138.93.66 (talk) 02:40, 14 June 2023 (UTC)
