Fritz Lobinger pic? -- Gerda Arendt (talk) 08:53, 4 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

OK, will look later. Storye book (talk) 09:06, 4 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Lobinger done. Storye book (talk) 11:05, 4 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Great smile, thank you --Gerda Arendt (talk) 20:11, 4 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Antonio Oteiza pic? - I listened to the B minor! ... with Tenebrae!! - Less uplifting: Template:Did you know nominations/Canto General (Theodorakis) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 16:17, 8 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Oteiza done. Thanks for the links - I'm busy today, but will listen later. Storye book (talk) 09:11, 9 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Some day I'd like to know if you see (in the nom) what I see: that someone generously permits someone else to review after striking all ALTs except someone's own? I wish I had a properly sarcastic reply. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 09:36, 9 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
The last three stories were Bach's Mass in B minor (because I heard it, as you know), and two women! --Gerda Arendt (talk) 20:14, 9 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, and I'm surprised that no-one else has called out that base behaviour. It has become tedious. They are obviously obsessed with your noms because they always dash to comment first. I always think that there is something amiss when people are obsessed, but in a negative way. It's not healthy. Thanks for the links, I'll look later. Storye book (talk) 09:02, 10 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, and I understand the hesitance to deal with the behaviour because whoever did would be subjected to the same style. How about you just suggest an ALT? There are so many possibilities of saying something positive, like the tens of thousands in Greece, or the work in progress, instead of highlighting the coup. The whole problem was solved if someone just ignored my hooks. I wonder if - instead of talking about the collaboration of Bach and Picander, or Mozart and da Ponte, or Strauss and Hofmannsthal, we'd talk about some delay by some brutal force, - and we are on that level of importance. - What you also could do is strike ALT1b as almost hilariously unfit. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 10:33, 10 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for bringing soul into the discussion!!! - Can't believe that I didn't ask for a pic for Harry Kupfer when he died, - I probably didn't know then about your magic gift. He'd be 90 today! I saw the performance mentioned in the 2018 DYK (and loved that), same for the one mentioned with Kateryna Kasper. Soul! --Gerda Arendt (talk) 06:41, 12 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Glad to be of help, though I have not looked at the nom template today, yet. Kupfer done. Storye book (talk) 09:36, 12 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
In the Canto nom, a hook I wrote just got approved (don't believe in miracles, rely on them ...). - Nice Kupfer image, thank you! - Salvador Chuliá Hernández pic? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 13:13, 12 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Salvador Chulia Hernandez done. Storye book (talk) 07:15, 13 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you! - Wolfgang Meyer pic? - Also: we have now File:AOteiza2019.jpg, and I think it would be better if the pic on the right was cropped away, and perhaps a bit less space on the left - unless that's another one that can't be changed. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 08:00, 14 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Meyer and Oteiza done. For Oteiza, see: his Commons category. Storye book (talk) 10:04, 14 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you, both lovely! - There's a discussion on the Meyer talk, in case of interest, --Gerda Arendt (talk) 11:22, 14 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Today's story mentions four singers which I all heard, soprano (whose birthday would have been today) and tenor were soloists with my choir in Hannover, and alto and tenor (married, singers of NDR Chor) were the soloists in the Verdi Requiem of my choir in Idstein, in 2010. Enjoy listening to soprano in a Telemann aria, and also pics of a hike on a hot day above Lorch. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 15:44, 16 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
