I don't know how hot (or erotic) the hook is, but the article is long enough, new enough, nocopyvio enough, etc. The hook is verified--obviously we're taking the Ukrainian sources with AGF, and with Google Translate. Drmies (talk) 23:34, 9 December 2022 (UTC)
- Comment Perhaps focusing more on Carmen Suite might make the hook more broadly appealing:
ALT1 : ... that Volodymyr Kozhukhar, chief conductor of the National Opera of Ukraine in Kyiv, conducted Rodion Shchedrin's Carmen Suite, noted as a "charged, erotic, dramatic score", with all qualities necessary to conduct such a work.Radzy0 (talk) 00:29, 24 December 2022 (UTC)- Thank you for trying, but I preferred to highlight the Ukrainian opera over only mentioning the sexy Russian version of Carmen, a name that implies erotic appeal. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 09:50, 24 December 2022 (UTC)
