Ravel Mother Goose wrong Opus number

Post by nathsiu0202 »

according to this wikipedia page, the opus number should be M.60 for the piano 4-hand, and M.60a for the orchestrated suite. the work page for it currrently has M.77 which is wrong.

I wouldn't necessarily trust that Wikipedia list. IIRC its current form was done by someone who tended to just make their own info. The list on here is likely more accurate:

That said, yeah it's wrong, and Ma Mere L'Oye should for sure be 60....though probably not 60a because again, person who made stuff up.
