REFERENCES

(X-posted from the project page)

Might I ask you, dear Cornucopia, that when you add in references like Mordden that you consider what, exactly, they bring to the article. That article is currently sourced with four references that are a blend of peer-reviewed material in leading journals, the standard reference (Harrison) and HCRL - the canonical source for Haydn symphonies. W Lister, The First Performance of Haydn's ‘Paris’ Symphonies, Eighteenth-Century Music (2004), 1: 289-300

H.C. Robbins Landon, The Symphonies of Joseph Haydn. (London: Universal Edition and Rockliff, 1955)

Bernard Harrison, Haydn: The "Paris" Symphonies (Cambridge University Press, 1998), p. 101

Emanuel Winternitz, Bagpipes and Hurdy-Gurdies in Their Social Setting, The Metropolitan Museum of Art Bulletin, New Series, Vol. 2, No. 1 (Summer, 1943), pp. 56-83

The source of the nickname "L'ours" has been amply sourced as it stands and I see little need to confuse the issue with a well-intentioned, but unrigorous, largely ambiguous explication more suitable to blithe programme note writing than a serious encyclopedic treatment.
