{{Notables Sticker|Musicians- Conductors}}

I just made a profile for Gyorgy (George) Szell. Notable who for 25 years conducted the Cleveland Orchestra from 1948-1970. There is a wikipedia of him in several languages since he conducted all over the world.  I want to add him and also maybe a new notables catalogue Musician-Conductors. I know almost every country has symphonies with famous conductors.  Arthur Fiedler-268.

Hopefully, this is my first try in adding a notable. Since I am a Clevelander, I went to see him conduct many times in their home Severance Center. He helped make the Cleveland Orchestra what it is today. He helped in having a year round music for everyone. He helped build their summer home Blossom Music Center for his musicians to play durning the summer months. Before they would perform have all summer off. He helped both the people and the musicians of Cleveland.

This is WHY I made a profile for HIM.

I adjusted the Notables Sticker template as it only accommodates 1 parameter. I added the category for the other parameter.

I had to delete the catalog conductor. I looked at the link. I looked at a couple of profiles mostly were Railroad conductor. So i deleted it  Maybe wrong name He was the Music Director for the Cleveland Orchestra. tyvm for helping

https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Category:Conductors is for Musical Conductors. It does look like some people have miscategorized Railway Conductors in that category and I will have a look and see if i can correct the category for those people. 

The Profile is quite nice with lots of information. Hopefully he can get connections added.

i am going to look into that. I need look at the Hungarian and Austria sources.

You can make an orchestra conductor occupation sticker.

{{Occupation|Image=nnn.jpg|text= was an orchestra conductor}}

Where nnn.jpg is a royalty free (no copywrite) image of an orchestra conductor that you upload to a page or freepace page.  
 

Glad to see that this category exists but sad to see so many of the entries (especially so many of the 'more' notable) are simple dupes of Wikipedia with no research into the ancestry having occurred, so many without even parents attached.
I daw that also. In my ‘spare time” I will look some of them .
very nice

I have this image for a conductor, if it's wanted - ADWP2-174.png
