Overall: The hook is a little bland. Perhaps a more interesting ALT1 might be that he took his first singing lessons with his grandmother, also a notable singer. Bahnfrend (talk) 09:21, 7 August 2021 (UTC)
@LouisAlain, Grimes2, and Gerda Arendt: Echoing Bahnfrend above, I wonder if a new hook could be crafted. The "specialist for lied recitals" I find interesting, but following that reads merely as contextless events. I also would suggest another couple of sentences in the lead, as the single sentence does not encapsulate the article and that is all many readers will see. CMD (talk) 14:58, 10 August 2021 (UTC)
