Trisdee
Welcome to Wikipedia!
Welcome to Wikipedia, Trisdee! I'm Celestianpower. I noticed that you were new and/or have yet to receive any messages so I just thought I'd pop in to say "hello". Hello. Wikipedia can be a little intimidating at first, since it's so big but we won't bite so Be Bold and get what you know down in microchips! If you do make a mistake, that's fine, we'll assume good faith and just correct you: it'll take a few seconds maximum! Here, however, are a few links to get you started:
- How to edit a page
- Editing, policy, conduct, and structure tutorial
- Picture tutorial
- How to write a great article
There are lots of policies and guidelines to get to grips with but they all make your life easier and your stay more fun in the long run. If you have any questions, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page or add {{helpme}} to your userpage - someone will come very, very quickly to your aid. Please be sure to sign your posts on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~) to produce your name and the current date, along with a link to your user page. This way, others know when you left a message and how to find you. It's easier than having to type out your name, right? ;)

RE: Your user page
editNo, it's a userpage so nearly anything goes! See Wikipedia:Userpage. Thanks! --Celestianpower háblame 18:08, 25 January 2006 (UTC)
Question
editI'm so glad to see a professional pianist here. I've played piano for ten years...stuff like Fur Elise, some Debussy (Engulfed Cathedral)...violin is really my forte, but I'm dying to play a concerto. For violin, as I'm sure you know, there are five major concertos: Mendelssohn, Beethoven, Tchaikovsky, Brahams, and Sibelius. My question is: can you PLEASE tell me what is the first concerto you would recommend a pianist playing? Any general direction would be terrific, since I'm not taking lessons currently. Thank you so much, in advance.--ViolinGirl♪ 20:05, 25 January 2006 (UTC)
- Hi, Trisdee! Regarding your message on ViolinGirl's talk page: When it comes to user pages, there's no such thing as "vanity". :) Add anything you want on it, as it's not in the article namespace. Hope this helps, and happy editing! See you around, Sango123 (talk) 21:01, 26 January 2006 (UTC)
- Trisdee, thank you SO MUCH for your advice. I cannot tell you how...(can I use the word, "precious"?) it is to me. Thank you, thank you, thank you! I look forward very much to trying the Mozart. I agree, baroque is BEAUTIFUL...Bach is always on my list (in violin), but my main piece in violin right now is Mozart's Fourth violin Concerto, so it will be good to have a corresponding composer for both. I also greatly appreciate the fact that you got back to me so quickly. What more can I say, than thank you? May I come to you if I have more questions, such as ornamentation in Bach's Goldberg Variations?
- Regarding your userpage...RELAX! It's fine, it's fine...don't ever worry about vanity pages. As Sango123 said...your userpage is your userpage, and you can do practically anything you want to with it. Enjoy!
- Again...I'm sorry for being so repetitive, but I honestly can't thank you enough. Grazie! Ciao!--ViolinGirl♪ 22:37, 26 January 2006 (UTC)
- PS Is the harpsichord a lot different to play from the piano?
- Thank you so much for getting back to me. I really enjoy knowing I can talk to you and I can trust the advice you give me. I look forward to improving my skills on the piano on the side (while violin is my main instrument).
- I had been trying to learn the Goldberg Variations, but didn't want to learn them wrong, so I was waiting for someone (like you!) to provide some guidance while I learned them. I see you have put the Aria from the Variations...I'll listen to it as soon as I get a chance. What do you think of Glenn Gould's interpretation?
- Thanks for explaining about the harpsichord. I understand what you mean about it being different…it’s kind of like when piano students think they can get by with an electric keyboard...*shudder* A harpsichord is plucked with quills, right? How does “striking” a key make that work? Also, when you hold down a key on the harpsichord, what is different from when you don’t hold it down…I’m guessing maybe some felt or something stops the string when you lift your finger off the key, as in piano? I’m sorry to be asking so many questions…if I get on your nerves, don’t think about replying…I understand. I’m just so ignorant about some of these things, and I’d really like to learn more.
- Well, here’s something to whet your appetite…on Thursday night, I was able to go hear Paavali Jumppanen playing Mozart’s Concerto in C Major, K. 415, and Chopin’s Sonata in B minor, Op. 58. As an encore he played Sibelius’s Impromptu in D flat major, and it was all so beautiful. Have you heard of/heard him play?
- Ok, well, I guarantee I‘ll have more questions, but that’s it for now…thanks so much! Ciao!--ViolinGirl♪ 12:40, 28 January 2006 (UTC)
Thanks!
editWow, thanks! I didn't expect that at all! :) I am glad that you find my work worthwhile, and even enough to recognize me for it. It is with gratitude that I accept your barnstar gift. Hopefully we will work together to improve Wikipedia for a while to come. :) -Sesquialtera II 22:39, 29 January 2006 (UTC)
Thanks for the compliments. I was thinking about a category for Buxtehude's compositions, to place the list and individual articles into, but I wasn't sure if anyone was willing to make articles for individual works. I'm glad someone is willing :) Jashiin 20:42, 1 February 2006 (UTC)
- Ok, just to let you know: I went ahead and created a category called "Compositions by Dieterich Buxtehude" (for some reason I can't link to it here, just check the list or the Membra Jesu Nostri article, I've added the category to both). Feel free to add articles to it :) Jashiin 15:21, 2 February 2006 (UTC)
Düben
editThe Düben family is usually seen as an important part of Swedish music history, but it's not as if Gustav was yet Swedish in some ethnic sense anyway (which would mostly be an anachronism when dealing with the 17th century). BTW, are you familiar with the Düben collection?
Anyway, it seems that my correction of his birthyear may have been mistaken. Svenskt biografiskt lexikon, a standard reference work for Swedish biography, gives his birthyear as 1624, but the D volume is rather dated; the more up-to-date encyclopedia Nationalencyklopedin has 1628.

Thank you!!
editWow, thank you very much for the barnstar! Its an incredible coincidence, too, since another great thing happened to me today; I've passed my final university exams! I just logged in and was going to remove the "Busy" sign (which I put there because of the exams) and start editing today when I saw your message.. so its a triple coincidence of a sort :)
About Johann Pachelbel, I'm very happy to know you like the examples, it took me a hell lot of time to make them :) I was thinking of adding 2-4 more but thought the article was becoming too detailed. Should I make a few more images or not, what do you think? Jashiin 18:16, 17 February 2006 (UTC)
Reply
editHey, no problem about taking your time in replying. I'm just grateful that you can help me occasionally.
I had a question about the Aria...I can't remember which measure it's in (don't have the music in front of me), but you know the three-note chord in the right hand somewhere in the middle of the music? Glenn Gould (the only other recording I've heard) rolls the chord from the top...is it just personal preference?
I'll take a look at your article (here on the wiki). Thanks for pointing me to it! As for Paavali Jumppanen...here's a link for you. :)
And, I got your e-mail. Sorry for the delay in my reply...I'm sort of on a WikiLeave right now, because of violin and school. So, if there's a wait...now you'll know why! :) Ciao!--ViolinGirl♪ 20:43, 26 February 2006 (UTC)
Thank you
editThank you for changing the audio file at Thaksin's page. My voice's kind of awful ^_^
I'm wondering if you can add one more file at Taksin the Great. Many people always ask what the difference between these names. Thanks. --Manop - TH 22:47, 6 March 2006 (UTC)
- Khun Manop, thanks a lot for your note, and please know that I didn't mean to be offensive in any way when I criticised your enunciation!! Really, I only replaced it because for some reason the first syllable was absent from the file. And thanks also for pointing out Taksin the Great — I will do as you asked. I'm not extremely proud of my voice either, though I tried my best to sound acedemic! Cheers, Trisdee 02:19, 7 March 2006 (UTC)
- Thank you krub.--Manop - TH 18:01, 8 March 2006 (UTC)
Welcome to Esperanza!
editWelcome, Trisdee, to Esperanza, the Wikipedia member association! As you might know, all the Esperanzians share one important goal: the success of this encyclopedia. Within that, we then attempt to strengthen the community bonds, and be the "approachable" side of the project. All of our ideals are held in the Charter, the governing document of the association.
Now that you are a member, you might be interested in some of our programs. A quite important program is the StressUnit, which seeks to support editors who have encountered any stress from their Wikipedia events, and are seeking to leave the project. So far, Esperanza can be credited with the support and retention of several users. We have a calendar of special events, member birthdays, and other holidays that you can add to and follow.
In addition to these projects, several more missions of Esperanza are in development, and are currently being created at Esperanza/Possibles.
I encourage you to take an active voice in the running of Esperanza. We have a small government system, headed by our Administrator general, Celestianpower, and guided by the Advisory Committee , KnowledgeOfSelf, JoanneB, Titoxd and FireFox. The elections have ended.
If you have any other questions, concerns, comments, or general ideas, Esperanzian or otherwise, know that you can always contact me via email or talk page. Alternatively, you could communicate with fellow users via our IRC channel, #wikipedia-esperanza (which is also good for a fun chat or two :). I thank you for joining Esperanza, and look forward to working with you in making Wikipedia a better place to be!Thanks! - File:Ottawa flag.png nathanrdotcom (T • C • W) 21:19, 8 March 2006 (UTC)

na Patalung
editSawadee krap. Funny I haven't noticed you as an active Thai editor yet, even though I usually monitor (and also work on) the articles on Thailand a lot. When I came across Trisdee na Patalung by accident, I noticed that it is you, and you are from the "na Patalung" family. I am very interested in Thai history, and thus came across several of the "na"-families already ("na Ranong", "na Nakhon" and "na Songkhla"), but haven't yet read anything about the na Phatthalung yet. Were there any notable historical persons in your family (probably the provincial governors of Phatthalung Province), which you could find sources about? Sadly I don't speak Thai yet, so I am limited to english resources, which are often quite limited. And that it is possible collect knowledge on such normally obscure topics like minor historical persons of Thailand is IMHO a big advantage of Wikipedia. andy 11:05, 30 March 2006 (UTC)

Old Skool Esperanzial note
editSince this isn't the result of an AC meeting, I have decided to go Old Skool. This note is to remind you that the elections are taking place now and will end at 23:50 UTC on 2006-04-29. Please vote here. Thanks. --Celestianpower háblame 20:42, 23 April 2006 (UTC)
Passing through
editSawasdee krup Trisdee, I discovered your most impressive homepage when I looked at the article-history for the Buxtehude article and noticed a Thai name there. I'm Australian but I visit Thailand frequently and am very fond of the country and people. The reason I was at the Buxtehude article was that someone recommended him to me (I'm ashamed to say I had never heard of him), so I bought the first DVD of his I saw, Membra Jesu Nostri, and am now a confirmed fan. To find a Thai who is also a baroque musician and scholar is an interesting overlap of some of my areas of interest, so I thought I would say hello. I have been editing on some Thai subjects recently so we may come across each other again. I will next be in Bkk in July. Adam 06:12, 5 May 2006 (UTC)

A short Esperanzial update
editAs you may have gathered, discussions have been raging for about a week on the Esperanza talk page as to the future direction of Esperanza. Some of these are still ongoing and warrant more input (such as the idea to scrap the members list altogether). However, some decisions have been made and the charter has hence been amended. See what happened. Basically, the whole leadership has had a reshuffle, so please review the new, improved charter.
As a result, we are electing 4 people this month. They will replace JoanneB and Pschemp and form a new tranche A, serving until December. Elections will begin on 2006-07-02 and last until 2006-07-09. If you wish to run for a Council position, add your name to the list before 2006-07-02. For more details, see Wikipedia:Esperanza/June 2006 elections.
Thanks and kind, Esperanzial regards, —Celestianpower háblame 16:00, 23 June 2006 (UTC)
