Locus iste

[edit]
(

  • Reviewed: Man Writing a Letter + Woman Reading a Letter
  • Comment: I may add an image once if I can be sure it's the chapel for which the composition was written. Kirchweih is "the anniversary of the dedication of a church", which would be too long, - is there a better term in English?

Created by Nikkimaria (talk), Gerda Arendt (talk). Nominated by Gerda Arendt (talk) at 14:04, 26 September 2014 (UTC).

ALT1: ... that Locus iste was composed by Anton Bruckner for four unaccompanied voices for the dedication of a chapel of the Linz Cathedral?
  • Note: the article was not only moved but split. The hook (which I restored) doesn't make sense any more. ALT 1 is on the boring side, sorry. Please let me expand a bit and find a suitable hook for the music alone. This may be next week, I will have practically no internet access on the weekend. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 21:14, 26 September 2014 (UTC)

ALT2: ... that in the motet Locus iste, composed for the dedication of the votive chapel (pictured) of Linz Cathedral, Anton Bruckner requests a pause "by carefully measuring out five beats"?
I expanded a bit and am no longer ashamed ;) - It should be sufficient for DYK and will grow further. The best date would be 29 October, 155th anniversary of the premiere, - some time to go. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 12:09, 1 October 2014 (UTC)
It passed a GA review. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 07:00, 22 October 2014 (UTC)
  • Even so, a full DYK review is required. BlueMoonset (talk) 07:19, 22 October 2014 (UTC)
  • It wasn't my intention to suggest otherwise. I only wanted to add the information because it changed since the nomination. (What should I have done to not be misunderstood?) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 07:46, 22 October 2014 (UTC)
  • Gerda, sorry, I did misread your intent. It was due to the context: I'd written that a full review was needed, and your post, which also used "review", seemed to reply to that. Rather than taking it as a post with new information, I thought yours was a direct reply: that it had passed a GA review, and (in such a context) that the GA review meant, perhaps, that a less than full review was needed because of the GA work. (There have recently been posts to that effect on the DYK talk page.) If you'd said "Article is now a GA", I doubt I would have blinked twice. BlueMoonset (talk) 16:50, 22 October 2014 (UTC)
  • I think I got it and hope for a review soon, to make the date, --Gerda Arendt (talk) 17:12, 22 October 2014 (UTC)
  • Full review needed, and if at all possible, in time to run on October 29, the anniversary of the piece's premiere. Thanks. BlueMoonset (talk) 20:56, 22 October 2014 (UTC)
  • @BlueMoonset: This newly-created article is new enough and long enough and also now a GA. The fact in ALT2 about the 5 beats is suitably sourced but the fact that Bruckner wrote the work specifically for the dedication of the votive chapel is sourced offline and accepted in good faith. The image is suitably licensed and the article is neutral and adheres to policy. For use on OCTOBER 29 if possible. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 10:34, 27 October 2014 (UTC)
  • I sang this is in highschool and it's stunningly beautiful, in part because of the tremendous power it develops in such a short period. I realize time is short, but is there any chance of substituting an audio file for the image, if one is available? EEng (talk) 19:09, 27 October 2014 (UTC)
I was more impressed with the image of the chapel - not the "quiet chapel" the Oratorio Society writer may have had in mind. Those interested in listening will hopefully find it on youtube (for example). We sang it in our church I and II, in the Leipzig Völkerschlachtdenkmal and most recently in the Katharinenkirche, Oppenheim. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 19:34, 27 October 2014 (UTC)
