Would Berg's violin concerto be a more appropriate title for this article? -- Zoe
- Possibly - it's something up for debate at Wikipedia talk:Naming conventions (pieces of music). Personally, I prefer putting the composer in brackets, because it is more consistent with disambiguation like Vertigo (movie), the possessive apostrophe seems rather clumsy somehow, and it makes it easier to link to the composer and the piece of music together: for example, writing in some article "in [[Berg's Violin Concerto]]..." is fine to get a link to the piece, but if you also want to link to the composer, you have to write "in [[Alban Berg]]'s [[Berg's Violin Concerto|Violin Concerto]]...", which is a pain. If you use the current form, though, you can use the pipe trick and write "in [[Alban Berg]]'s [[Violin Concerto (Berg)|]]..." (the extra pipe at the end of the second link causes this to be rendered as "in Alban Berg's Violin Concerto"), which is a good deal easier. So I believe the current title is best, but I'm prepared to be convinced otherwise. (I'll copy this to the aforementioned naming convention page, btw) --Camembert
