The reference to his resemblance to Mr De Niro is just anecdotical and trivial and I have deleted it. -- Karljoos ( talk) 00:20, 18 January 2009 (UTC)
"Hespèrion XX favored a style of interpretation characterised by great musical vitality and at the same time, maximum historical accuracy."
This is an odd thing to say. Why should historical accuracy and musical vitality be antithetical? If anything, they should go together.
One of the best things about Savall's conducting and playing is the tremendous sense of self-confidence he and his performers project. We are so accustomed to an unduly "respectful" of pre-1800 music that we forget that the people who originally created and performed this music did not "worship" it. They just "did it", presumably with great verve and style. ("The best jazz is played with verve.") Whether Savall correctly captures the original style is debatable, but there's no question that his are almost-always engaging and un-wussy performances.
The original writer ought to think about this, and come up with a deeper description of what makes his performances uniquely good.

This is absurd. A distinctively Scottish or Welsh musician from the UK would always be described as such from the outset. See, for example, the article on Bryn Terfel, which no-one has thought to challenge, although the discussion page does review his linguistic background. Savall and his family have long been identified with Catalan culture and the article should make this clear. Even if it does upset Spanish fascists, it's a fact.
