with dates that precede adoption of the Gregorian system (most of Britain, 1752) it is customary, I think, to specify both Julian and Gregorian dates (see the article on Byrd, for example), at least if one can be fairly sure that one's sources, their sources and their sources have been careful in this regard (... erm. Or otherwise put... erm. :( ) Is there at least fairly good reason at least to suppose that these are Gregorian dates (as our policy ''does'' in fact require?)

Under recordings it might be worth mentioning that the Missa Tecum Principium and the Motet Aeterna Laudis Lilium were recorded by the Ambrosian Singers (using a choir of 17 singers, apparently the number Fayrfax had at St Albans) under Denis Stevens, who later published his own edition of the work, in St George the Martyr, Queens Square, London on 5 July 1962 for the Schwann Musica Sacra Label, AMS 38. This may well have been the work's first recording.[[Special:Contributions/86.131.144.239|86.131.144.239]] ([[User talk:86.131.144.239|talk]]) 11:21, 2 February 2016 (UTC)

Merger proposal

No doubt they should be merged. However, there is not much sourced material in the Robert Fairfax (musician) article, so I am not sure what can reasonably be added here.--SabreBD (talk) 11:56, 19 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
