Most sources I can find actually say the gopak is Ukrainian. They may have it in both places, I suppose. Leaving it in for now. Markalexander100 02:41, 28 Mar 2004 (UTC)

Updated: I've found various sources saying it's Ukrainian, Russian, or Byelorussian. No Georgian yet...Markalexander100 06:55, 9 May 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Inspiration for Psycho?

The opening of the second movement sounds almost exactly like the opening of Bernard Hermann's score for Psycho. Is there any evidence that one inspired the other?

[edit] Mahler's "ape call?"

"... the similarity of the motif to the ape call in the first movement of Das Lied von der Erde This note was added, 17:10, 19 January 2006, with a footnote. What's up with this? as they say. Translation glitch? Russian humor? --Wetman 02:08, 18 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Elmira.ogg

Image:Elmira.ogg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 04:50, 3 June 2007 (UTC)
