... that Peter Lagger, a Swiss bass, performed in the world premieres of Louise Talma's Alkestiade at the Oper Frankfurt and of Penderecki's Magnificat at the Salzburg Festival? Source: [1]

Reviewed: black-cowled oriole
Comment: Opera ~~and Magnificat~~ will have articles until this appears. The Magnificat was conducted by the composer, and he was the only soloist, but no room for it in the hook I assume.

Article was nominated within the one week timeframe, and is over 2500 characters long. It is referenced and has inline citations throughout. Every point in the bulletlist is referenced too, which is a plus. His world premiers are mentioned in text with citations, but AGF on the German language sources. No neutrality concerns.

Year of birth[edit]

Hi Gerda, I went to add a ref for Lagger's dates of birth and death but found conflicting years for birth. We have 1930 but refs 1, 2, 7, and GNL have him born 1926. Bach Cantatas and some other places online have 1930. Which year do you think is more likely correct? JennyOz (talk) 11:23, 1 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for looking, I changed to 1926, not that the GSL is always right but that was printed in many editions. Bach Cantatas is not even considered a RS. The two Swiss dictionaries seem to have the same info, - could be combined perhaps. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 11:40, 1 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks Gerda, all good. JennyOz (talk) 12:11, 1 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
