October songs

my story today

My story today is sad but great. -- Gerda Arendt (talk) 19:40, 6 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Do you still translate awards articles? The two red links among his deserve an English version, per recepients, - I think. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 19:31, 7 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

A few more pics, and see my talk for what we sang today, and what Tabea Zimmermann played (today's story on her birthday): I heard it, and it's on YouTube. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 21:42, 8 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Figaro at Oper Frankfurt was fascinating! --Gerda Arendt (talk) 23:08, 14 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Today, it's a place that inspired me, musings if you have time. Thank you for your help with the artist's article! My corner for memory and music has today a juxtaposition of what our local church choirs offer. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 12:52, 20 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

A Romanian woman composer is today's topic. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 17:08, 24 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I thought of Brian Bouldton today, and his ways to compromise. - I'm on vacation again, more pics to come, but too tired after church (pictured on my talk), hiking and paella. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 21:44, 29 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I ran into an edit conflict, and too much you changed to just ignore it, also most will be good. I don't agree with deleting unsourced information at this point. We just begin to find sources, no? Everybody can see that it isn't sourced (yet), but if deleted we may forget to even look for one.

Can we do the following: I'll solve the last conflict, and then leave for a while? - I do want to nominate today but it's not a last minute urgency. -- Gerda Arendt (talk) 13:45, 13 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, sorry about that. Grimes2 (talk) 13:48, 13 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

My edits are  Done. Please nominate. Thanks. Grimes2 (talk) 13:58, 13 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I see that you have used citation bot to add dates to references to numismatics.org.uk webpages here. I am not familiar with the bot, so could you explain what the dates mean? The pages seem to be updated regularly. TSventon (talk) 14:26, 13 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Reverted. I think the bot is wrong. I've reported the problem at the Citation bot discussion page. Grimes2 (talk) 14:45, 13 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for checking. Michael Metcalf was the first article I wrote, so it is good to see someone else taking an interest. TSventon (talk) 17:02, 15 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hevenu shalom aleichem is my story today. -- Gerda Arendt (talk) 21:34, 2 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I added some images from Aachen, taken 21 Oct. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 21:55, 3 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I proudly remember having sung in an oratorio premiere seven years ago OTD. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 16:34, 6 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

More, if you like: today I have three items on the Main page, almost too much of a good thing! Bach's amazing cantata with the unusual scale, first performed 300 years ago OTD, the nun for the prostitutes, and Schumann's wedding gift for Clara. Also first day of vacation pics uploaded. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 18:00, 7 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Today is St. Martin's Day, which stands for sharing. Sharing one more day of vacation ;) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 23:07, 11 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I began another day of vacation pics, with the deepest blue of the sea ;) - we celebrate the birthday of a friend who wrote quite a book about the compositions of a man who will turn 300 soon. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 15:15, 14 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Is there a chance for International Hilde Zadek Competition [de]? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 12:10, 16 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

My story today is a DYK hook from 13 years ago OTD: about the great music at one of my churches, and you know it. Mozart's Requiem to come on Sunday, coupled with Arvo Pärt's Fratres and Da pacem Domine, - come if you have time. Did you see the video of our last production, our first on yt, ever. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 20:07, 21 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

What a story! --Gerda Arendt (talk) 21:56, 24 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for coming! --Gerda Arendt (talk) 22:53, 26 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Today: in memoriam Jerome Kohl who said (In Freundschaft): "and I hope that they have met again in the beyond and are making joyous music together" --Gerda Arendt (talk) 15:06, 27 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi! I see you are a member of WikiProject Awards. I’m seeking feedback on some suggested updates to the Academy of Achievement page. I have a conflict of interest, would you be able to do a review? Jarc12030 (talk) 19:33, 22 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

December: story · music · places

Today's story is about Maria Callas, on her centenary. - Aaron Copland died OTD, and Jerome Kohl (mentioned in November) said something wise on Copland's talk. - Thank you for fixing my entry of a wonderful concert of the hr symphony with Altinuglu, in a great hall and facing him! -- Gerda Arendt (talk) 16:43, 2 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I did visit hr symphony with Altinoglu on 23 November 2023 at Alte Oper. Almost the same program. Grimes2 (talk) 16:56, 2 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Good! Just the hall on the island in the Seine is the much better hall for them, - too bad it's so far away. Even when you are already in Paris, it's a long trip (and the last leg back was walking because the Metro didn't run due to an accident) - but worth it. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 17:23, 2 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I'm sorry for your inconvenience in Paris. The acoustics in the Alte Oper isn't that bad. Grimes2 (talk) 19:18, 2 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Today, I managed to get the pics to snow (on 28 Nov), and heard a lovely concert, after listening to a miracle of meditative dreaming on 6 December (or just click on music). (And driving home, it was another Altinnoglu concert live on radio.) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 22:01, 8 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

... and today, to Paris (29 Nov) with a visit to the Palais Garnier, - to match the story of Medea Amiranashvili, - don't miss listening to her expressive voice. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 19:58, 9 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

My story today is about Michael Robinson, - it's an honour to have known him. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 15:02, 13 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for what you do and stand for! I wish you a merry Christmas and a peaceful New Year! --Gerda Arendt (talk) 20:33, 20 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Today, I have a special story to tell, of the works of a musician born 300 years ago. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 09:22, 22 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Christmas music pictured --Gerda Arendt (talk) 23:52, 25 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I try to finish uploading images of 2023 before it ends, and reached 17 December, two from the opera balcony to skyscrapers scraping. Happy to see Rebekka Habermas and Heike Matthiesen on the Main page. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 23:28, 29 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

In this edit here, I reverted some information that appears to be a violation of our copyright policy.

I provided a brief summary of the problem in the edit summary, which should be visible just below my name. You can also click on the "view history" tab in the article to see the recent history of the article. This should be an edit with my name, and a parenthetical comment explaining why your edit was reverted. If that information is not sufficient to explain the situation, please ask.

I do occasionally make mistakes. We get hundreds of reports of potential copyright violations every week, and sometimes there are false positives, for a variety of reasons. (Perhaps the material was moved from another Wikipedia article, or the material was properly licensed but the license information was not obvious, or the material is in the public domain but I didn't realize it was public domain, and there can be other situations generating a report to our Copy Patrol tool that turn out not to be actual copyright violations.) If you think my edit was mistaken, please politely let me know and I will investigate. S Philbrick(Talk) 20:18, 30 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

La Grand Macabre Schott --Gerda Arendt (talk) 13:50, 4 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I have a DYK on the Main page, but my story would be different, about Figaro, - this Figaro. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 16:58, 12 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

On the Main page: the person who made the pictured festival possible --Gerda Arendt (talk) 21:28, 16 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Is there a grammar issue in that story? Grimes2 (talk) 21:34, 16 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Do you mean that you don't know who "he" is? - It would have ben easier if the hook had run in 2023. - Thank you for improving articles in January! I remember Ewa Podleś on the Main page, and had - believe it or not - two musical DYK today. Shalom chaverim. On vacation, with something for your sweet tooth --Gerda Arendt (talk) 22:23, 25 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Nice to see Widmer's page grow! - Today I am happy about a singer on the Main page (at least for the first hours), after TFA the same day last year. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 16:35, 7 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
