Nope, different guy. Since they both worked at the court they may have even known each other though. Antandrus (talk) 16:16, 21 July 2016 (UTC)Reply

Removed from article edit

I've removed this addition by 24.41.11.210 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log), presuming it was meant for the talk page:

"He urges the above authors to reconsider their description of the cantus firmus treatment in the motets: for example, the long notes are likelier to appear in the tenor than the top voice, and far more often, the preexistent chant (if identifiable) will be presented in segments in a more migratory manner within a looser texture of paraphrase. Furthermore, the authors should mention that many of Maillard's works appeared only in Spain, in manuscripts, and that this may suggest that he lived there at some point (after his disappearance from Paris?). Stay tuned for more of his works to appear in print!

This expressive music deserves many more modern performances, and recordings too, in the humble opinion of RHR." Antandrus (talk) 02:14, 7 March 2010 (UTC)Reply

==Composers Project Assessment of Jean Maillard: 2009-01-7==

This is an assessment of article Jean Maillard by a member of the Composers project, according to its assessment criteria. This review was done by Magicpiano.

If an article is well-cited, the reviewer is assuming that the article reflects reasonably current scholarship, and deficiencies in the historical record that are documented in a particular area will be appropriately scored. If insufficient inline citations are present, the reviewer will assume that deficiencies in that area may be cured, and that area may be scored down.

Adherence to overall Wikipedia standards (WP:MOS, WP:WIAGA, WP:WIAFA) are the reviewer's opinion, and are not a substitute for the Wikipedia's processes for awarding Good Article or Featured Article status.

===Origins/family background/studies=== Does the article reflect what is known about the composer's background and childhood? If s/he received musical training as a child, who from, is the experience and nature of the early teachers' influences described?

  •   ok

===Early career=== Does the article indicate when s/he started composing, discuss early style, success/failure? Are other pedagogic and personal influences from this time on his/her music discussed?

  •   ok

===Mature career=== Does the article discuss his/her adult life and composition history? Are other pedagogic and personal influences from this time on his/her music discussed?

  •   ok

===List(s) of works=== Are lists of the composer's works in WP, linked from this article? If there are special catalogs (e.g. Köchel for Mozart, Hoboken for Haydn), are they used? If the composer has written more than 20-30 works, any exhaustive listing should be placed in a separate article.

  •   No (known/surviving) works list.

===Critical appreciation=== Does the article discuss his/her style, reception by critics and the public (both during his/her life, and over time)?

  •   ok

===Illustrations and sound clips=== Does the article contain images of its subject, birthplace, gravesite or other memorials, important residences, manuscript pages, museums, etc? Does it contain samples of the composer's work (as composer and/or performer, if appropriate)? (Note that since many 20th-century works are copyrighted, it may not be possible to acquire more than brief fair use samples of those works, but efforts should be made to do so.) If an article is of high enough quality, do its images and media comply with image use policy and non-free content policy? (Adherence to these is needed for Good Article or Featured Article consideration, and is apparently a common reason for nominations being quick-failed.)

  •   An image! No sound.

===References, sources and bibliography=== Does the article contain a suitable number of references? Does it contain sufficient inline citations? (For an article to pass Good Article nomination, every paragraph possibly excepting those in the lead, and every direct quotation, should have at least one footnote.) If appropriate, does it include Further Reading or Bibliography beyond the cited references?

  •   Article has references; no inline citations. If =9t2rGgAACAAJ this book is what Google says it is, article may be incomplete.

===Structure and compliance with WP:MOS=== Does the article comply with Wikipedia style and layout guidelines, especially WP:MOS, WP:LEAD, WP:LAYOUT, and possibly WP:SIZE? (Article length is not generally significant, although Featured Articles Candidates may be questioned for excessive length.)

  •   ok

===Things that may be necessary to pass a Good Article review===

  • If article is expanded, headings should be added
  • Article requires more inline citations (WP:CITE)

===Summary=== A brief article about a seemingly poorly-documented figure. If =9t2rGgAACAAJ this book is a more detailed treatment of him, this article may be incomplete. (Worldcat claims it to be a PhD thesis, and not widely available.)

The article is lacking a complete works listing, and inline citations. (Nice image...)



Article is B-class; someone needs to check out the sources. Magic♪piano 18:40, 7 January 2009 (UTC)Reply
