Question mark is misplaced[edit]

If you look at the website or at the album itself, the question mark should actually fall outside the parentheses, not inside. However, making this change means redirecting the page, editing it, and editing the P.D.Q. Bach page. Not sure I want to go to all that trouble for the sake of an errant punctuation mark. - AlanUS (talk) 02:23, 10 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Your observation seems correct. This page ought to be moved accordingly: Peter Schickele Presents an Evening with P. D. Q. Bach (1807–1742)?. It's not one of the most urgent tasks on Wikipedia, though. -- Michael Bednarek (talk) 15:43, 3 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

title[edit]

I don't see anything like “an evening with” anywhere on the sleeve of the Vanguard vinyl. On the front: The eminent musicologist and composer, PETER SCHICKELE in a program of the recently discovered works of P.D.Q.BACH; on the back: Peter Schickele presenting a concert of recently discovered works by P.D.Q.BACH; on the ‘spine’: MUSIC OF “P. D. Q. BACH” (PETER SCHICKELE TOWN HALL CONCERT). —Tamfang (talk) 04:12, 3 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

That description appears verbatim at http://www.schickele.com/shoppe/pdqrec/evening.htm. -- Michael Bednarek (talk) 15:43, 3 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Hm, that's still a primary source … —Tamfang (talk) 01:15, 5 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I don't see anything at WP:PRIMARY that precludes its use for determining the title. So what do you suggest as the title for this article? -- Michael Bednarek (talk) 04:12, 5 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
