Interesting piece of music, on fine sources, foreign sources accepted AGF, no copyvio obvious. I can approve the hooks if you want, but would prefer a combination, ALT1 adding "when it was premiered in 2025", to add interest. - In the infobox and the lead, I miss information about the text, written when by whom. Also: I don't we should say "Concert Barn", - it's just a translation, not a name. --Gerda Arendt (talk)15:33, 18 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Combining the ALTs into a single one would overload it. Because in order to convey why the premiere year matters, it needs to be contextualized with mention of the composition year. Piled on top of the "bleaker-than-bleak" blurb and it becomes too much. I don't want that. I haven't dug around in my recent back issues of theDSCH Journal yet, but it's possible that I can dig up just a little more information to extract one more ALT. Otherwise, I'm happy to run with either ALT0 or ALT1. But, again, not a combination of the two. —CurryTime7-24 (talk)18:14, 18 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

(I don't think we has to mention the composition year, because some will know that Sh. died long ago, and others my not care. But as you wish.)) --Gerda Arendt (talk)18:58, 18 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
