Somebody changed the date of The Wooden Prince from 1917 to 1927. 1917 was the date of the premiere (in Budapest by the Hungarian State Opera), and Kenneth Thompson's Dictionary of 20th Century Composers gives the composition date as 1914-16 - I expect these dates are inscribed on the score, but I don't have a copy so can't check at source. In any case, 1927 is definitely wrong, and I've fixed the article accordingly. --Camembert

Sānnicolau Mare
- Halló! Romanian ortography has changed. Sīnnicolau Mare became Sānnicolau Mare. I lived there. To my knowledge, there was / is a memorial house. Regards Gangleri 23:45, 2004 Oct 11 (UTC)
