Dead link[edit]

Note that the second external link, supposed to be a Review of Sirius by Ingvar Loco Nordin is a dead link. Ptyxs (talk) 08:35, 1 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for calling attention to this. The server has changed, and I have now updated the link. It should work now.—Jerome Kohl (talk) 17:02, 1 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Text[edit]

A record of the complete text of this work (a libretto), or a link toward this text if available on the Net, or a mention of a book containing it, would be welcome. Ptyxs (talk) 08:35, 1 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think a separate libretto has been published, and there certainly is not one online. It is possible that excerpts are included in the composer's Texte (probably in vol. 4), but I will have to check that. If there is something along these lines, I shall add mention of it to the article. Thanks for the suggestion.—Jerome Kohl (talk) 17:09, 1 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The libretto's text is interspersed throughout the CD booklet, for the record. Trumpetrep (talk) 20:07, 1 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, Trumpetrep, that is useful. Texte 4:306–309 has "Texte zu TIERKREIS und SIRIUS", but these are just the texts for the twelve Tierkreis melodies. Although they do occur in Sirius, they are far from being the entire libretto.—Jerome Kohl (talk) 00:33, 2 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
