Today's story mentions a concert I loved to hear (DYK) and a piece I loved to sing in choir, 150 years old (OTD). - Enjoy being away from a place where your simple reasoning for an opera singer's notability is not heard ;) -- Gerda Arendt (talk) 20:19, 22 May 2024 (UTC)
What about of George Alexander Macfarren's Helvellyn (1864)[edit]
I am sure that Macfarren's Helvellyn is one of the most famous English operas of the 19th century. 176.32.19.44 (talk) 20:31, 14 June 2024 (UTC)
- What about it? Do you have a question or proposal? -- Michael Bednarek (talk) 00:56, 15 June 2024 (UTC)
- Yes! Look at https://operastory.co.uk/helvellyn-by-george-alexander-macfarren/ 176.32.19.44 (talk) 12:22, 15 June 2024 (UTC)
- So, we can add Macfarren's Helvellyn at the List of prominent operas? 176.32.19.44 (talk) 12:29, 15 June 2024 (UTC)
- The article you linked clearly points out that it's not a prominent opera. -- Michael Bednarek (talk) 12:42, 15 June 2024 (UTC)
- So, is it a forgotten opera? 176.32.19.44 (talk) 13:24, 15 June 2024 (UTC)
- And anyway, I wish it were a more famous British opera 176.32.19.44 (talk) 19:15, 15 June 2024 (UTC)
- The article you linked clearly points out that it's not a prominent opera. -- Michael Bednarek (talk) 12:42, 15 June 2024 (UTC)
"better source needed" tag on Richard Strauss[edit]
Hi Michael, I have requested the removal of a "better source needed" tag you added to a quotation on Richard Strauss back in 2020 [1] (quotation from his journals about being appointed to the Reichsmusikkammer), since the broadcast it is cited to is currently listenable for free online (labeled Friday, June 14, 2024) for the next 13 days at https://www.wfmt.com/programs/exploring-music/. The quote is at about one-and-a-half minutes in.
The talkpage thread is Talk:Richard Strauss#"better source needed" tag on Strauss quote. Thanks! Softlavender (talk) 22:45, 15 June 2024 (UTC)
- Responded there. -- Michael Bednarek (talk) 00:31, 16 June 2024 (UTC)
