Composer's real name

According to many sources, L.B.Est was a title/pseudonym used by Stefan Stocker (1795-1882?), an Austrian composer:

"In diesem Gottesdienst singt die Chorgemeinschaft die Missa brevis „Lauda Sion“ des südtiroler Komponisten L.B. Est (1795-1886). Begleitet wird der Chor von einem Orchester mit Flöte, Klarinetten und Streichern. Der Komponist dürfte den wenigsten bekannt sein. Es handelt sich dabei um einen Bassisten mit Namen Stefan Stocker, der als Pseudonym seine Berufsbezeichnung und seinen Namen abkürzte; so steht L.B. Est für Land Bassist Stocker."

According to the text above, he didn't have the intention to hide behind a pseudonym, it was just a work title by which he was known back then. Should we stick to the composer's real name instead of his pseudonym? —Carlos Email.gif 04:41, 8 December 2008 (UTC)
