Siegfried Rapp
[edit]- ... that pianist Siegfried Rapp, who lost his right arm during World War II, premiered Sergei Prokofiev's 4th Piano Concerto (for the left hand)?

The hook is intriguing but the article is barely over 1500 characters (1523 char, not including blockquote and lists). Yoninah (talk) 13:02, 6 March 2012 (UTC)
- Yes, and - as the author states - "The details of Rapp's life are little known." - What can we do? Other articles nominated were much longer than required, for example 16,367 for Messiah Part II although it consists mostly of (additional) tables. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 13:12, 6 March 2012 (UTC)
- I just listed more reliable sources, at least for Rapp's music and performances, on the article talk page. You may also find more information in German-language sources on Google Books. Yoninah (talk) 13:14, 6 March 2012 (UTC)
- Thanks for finding them. I looked and didn't see additional information. Please tell the author, I have other priorities at present, unfortunately, --Gerda Arendt (talk) 13:21, 6 March 2012 (UTC)
- I just added information from an interesting paper in the Journal of Hand Surgery to the article. There really are more sources on Google if you just search for them. Yoninah (talk) 13:34, 6 March 2012 (UTC)
- I added some performers, --Gerda Arendt (talk) 22:10, 6 March 2012 (UTC)
