Does anybody know how to pronounce "Onegin"? I've heard OWN-a-gin (hard 'g') and "AWN-a-gin" (soft 'g') and everything in between. If the stress is capable of being moved--"o-NEE-gin"--the possibilities are endless. Thanks.
Can anyone translate what was just added by S0lnishk0? I don't think we should have the article written in Russian. -- BaronLarf 16:29, Apr 2, 2005 (UTC)

We have some inconsistencies here - Lensky and Lenski for example.
It seems out of date to be still calling the opera Eugene Onegin. The New Grove Dictionary of Opera - the best authority for opera - gives Yevgeny Onegin. It also gives Tat'yana, Ol'ga, Filipp'yevna, and Lensky.

Even though the opera was never, to my knowledge, regularly performed in German in English-speaking countries, it was for a very long time referred to as "Eugen Onegin" - with the German pronunciation that sounds like "oygen". I still occasionally hear radio broadcasters using that pronunciation, even though whenever it's performed here, it's either in English or Russian, never German. Has anyone else encountered this, and is there a case for mentioning this in the article? -- JackofOz ( talk) 05:24, 2 February 2008 (UTC)

I'd suggest reworking the synopsis as it's been taken directly from the Opera Japonica site (which is no longer accessible). Please let me know if there'd be any objections. Thanks, OperaBalletRose ( talk) 11:21, 14 September 2012 (UTC)
"The libretto was written by Konstantin Shilovsky and the composer and his brother Modest" isn't a well-written or clear phrase. Did all three write the libretto? If so, why two "and"'s? beej ( talk) 15:38, 26 November 2012 (UTC)
