Esmeralda

edit

I've looked at two french versions and one english translation of the book, and in none of them do I find Esmeralda spelled Esméralda (note the accent). The name appears in other places with the accent, but not in any of the copies of Notre Dame de Paris that I can find. I think it should be changed in the article. Objections?

We have to keep in mind that this article pertains to the musical, not the book, so it's the spelling that the producers of the musical used, not the one in the book, that is relevant. My copy of the soundtrack does not use the accent -- so you're right, it should be changed. As should a number of things in the article. Skeezix1000 13:28, 18 November 2006 (UTC)Reply

Segara vs Noa

edit

"On the recording of the soundtrack of the musical, Segara does not sing the role of Esmeralda, instead being replaced by Noa." I have the soundtrack which I bought in France and it credits Segara and it is definitely her singing. Anyone know where this is coming from? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.109.46.215 (talk) 05:58, 1 December 2006 (UTC)Reply

The copy of the CD that I have, put out by Sony Classical, credits Noa. This is a studio recording of the soundtrack though. If it's a live soundtrack that you have, it probably is Segara.ReveRouge 01:36, 2 January 2007 (UTC)Reply

Correct. Noa sings on what is generally considered to be the "concept album" for Notre Dame de Paris. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Saxmachine1411 (talkcontribs) 02:28, 4 March 2009 (UTC)Reply

Noa is not French, she is an Israeli. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 128.189.174.210 (talkcontribs).

Quotes

edit

Is it ususal to publish long critical quotes in a wikipedia article? I think these should be reserved for footnotes perhaps. Portia1780 (talk) 03:12, 31 January 2008 (UTC)Reply

Definition of the show

edit

Please, consult this article of italian Wikipedia (perhaps using a Google traslator). I'ts about the definiton of the show. Should we change the name of the page?

Critical response

edit

This section looks somewhat biased and overall negative. Could anyone please add critical reception inside French-speaking countries, for example, and towards the original production and not the English one? It would only be fair. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 95.108.171.171 (talk) 13:42, 27 August 2015 (UTC)Reply

Not sure where this fits

edit

Here's an article in Billboard which tells of the successful sales of a soundtrack album before the show even opens in Quebec.[1] I'n not sure if this album is listed in the article, or if so which one it is.—Anne Delong (talk) 19:28, 19 December 2016 (UTC)Reply

Cast list

edit

The cast list for the opera is riddled with errors, not the least of which is that the character list is not from Notre Dame de Paris, but The Three Musketeers! Noidywg (talk) 15:14, 17 June 2021 (UTC)Reply

Musical Numbers

edit

Along with the cast list, the musical numbers section is full of errors. Both seem to be referring to some Three Musketeers opera/musical. I'm hoping someone was just confused and edited the wrong page. I'm surprised Wikipedia hasn't caught this and corrected this? I remember once I tried to change the use of the word "Gypsies" to "Roma" on the main Wikipedia article for the original novel and it was changed IMMEDIATELY. --2601:681:5580:5130:C154:6940:975:FDA9 (talk) 03:59, 2 July 2021 (UTC)Lucia July 1 2021Reply
