Acording to what document "he was baptised as Jovan Ivanović"? None of his biographies found on the web mention such a thing. Even Timisoara as a place of birth is just a speculation, he was enroled in a regiment in Galati since he was 14 as it was the habit with some orphaned childs. When and why did he emigrated at such a young age? Stop spreading false informations because many people quotes Wiki and it's a matter of time before it is considered as truth. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.118.173.81 (talk) 08:41, 25 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Source for October 4

[edit]

Obituary/Necrology in the Monatshefte für Musik Geschichte (1903 issue, Death-list for 1902, easily downloadable from Google), p.121. All dates in Gregorian since published in Germany. Schissel | Sound the Note! 20:03, 2 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Re this edit and its summary: he died on October 4, 1902. September 28 is the date of his death in Julian - Romania did not change over until 1919>1902:
The reason given for the change is incorrect. In the 20th century, the gap between the Julian and Gregorian calendars was 13 days. But the gap between 28 September and 4 October is only 6 days. If 28 September is the correct Julian date, the correct Gregorian date would be 11 October, not 4 October. Conversely, if 4 October is the correct Gregorian date, the corresponding Julian date would have been 21 September, not 28 September.
I am in no position to dispute the source provided by Schissel, but I can certainly say the discrepancy between the formerly accepted death date of 28 September and the new date of 4 October has nothing to do with the belated introduction of the Gregorian calendar in Romania. Unless someone has made an error of exactly 7 days; which casts doubt on anything they have published. -- Jack of Oz [pleasantries] 22:13, 9 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Hrm. Good point, and thanks. ... Odd... Schissel | Sound the Note! 13:06, 14 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Bavarian Ländler

[edit]

So....did Ivanovici actually write this piece? The CD 'Wedding Celebrations' (Naxos 8.550900) SEEMS to credit it to him on the rear cover, but it's not clear in the notes if it's his or a folk tune. All reference to him composing it outside of here seems to come from that CD, and the Johann Strauss Society site doesn't list it. Would love some light shed on this. ♫ Melodia Chaconne ♫ (talk) 23:37, 18 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
