In Freundschaft

Suzanne Stephens in 1990
Suzanne Stephens in 1990
  • Reviewed: Gather (film)
  • Comment: The original contains most of what could be said, still omitting that the premiere was played in 1977 on flute, by two women one after the other; ALT1 is shortened to permitted DYK size, but missing a lot. Help welcome. The article was written by Jerome Kohl, and brought to GA is a little tribute for his enormous contributions to Wikipedia.

Improved to Good Article status by Jerome Kohl (talk), Gerda Arendt (talk), and RandomCanadian (talk). Nominated by Gerda Arendt (talk) at 21:28, 1 October 2021 (UTC).

Perhaps the image might be cropped a bit, GRuban? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 21:34, 1 October 2021 (UTC)

And brightened! However, I think this is actually in 1988, from the description. --GRuban (talk) 19:42, 3 October 2021 (UTC)
Thank you, and yes, 1988, - no idea how the other got there. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 20:57, 3 October 2021 (UTC)

Long enough, good articley enough, only earwig copied text is a quote. A few discography items are unsourced, are they from the general sources in the beginning? The comment is correct regarding the hook. I feel ALT1 misses the crucial "composition for one instrument", without which there is no context. Might I suggest as part of changes that "clarinetist" is dropped, as the article states it was first performed for a flute. Could I ask Gerda Arendt and RandomCanadian to put heads together regarding a way to capture the essence in a pithy manner? CMD (talk) 15:51, 17 October 2021 (UTC)

ALT1a:... that In Freundschaft was composed in friendship by Karlheinz Stockhausen, first for the solo clarinet of Suzanne Stephens (pictured), and then adapted to the instruments other friends played?
I tried. I don't think we should omit clarinet, as pictured (and I do hope the article substance justifies appearance of a good image). The flutes premiere was sort of an intimate event. Will check out recordings. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 18:03, 17 October 2021 (UTC)
I added refs now (not formatted yet) to the recordings not in Stockhausen Verlag, but can't help thinking that the recording numbers (comparable to book ISBN numbers) should serve the purpose. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 19:12, 17 October 2021 (UTC)
Out of my wheelhouse I'm afraid. I'll AGF on recording numbers if that is the case. Is there a shorter way to say "composition for one instrument"? CMD (talk) 05:36, 18 October 2021 (UTC)
Yes, and I tried, saying "solo clarinet". I added the refs for the recordings, just for next time I'l like to know if I could use the time for something more useful. They were enough for the article since Jerome wrote it, and for the GA reviewer. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 09:04, 18 October 2021 (UTC)
Suggestion:
ALT1b:... that In Freundschaft was composed in friendship by Karlheinz Stockhausen, as a clarinet solo for Suzanne Stephens (pictured), and then adapted to the solo instruments of other friends?
CMD (talk) 11:19, 18 October 2021 (UTC)
Fine, but I think one "solo" is enough, we can drop it the second time. I also don't think we need the comma after the composer's name. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 12:24, 18 October 2021 (UTC)
ALT1c:... that In Freundschaft was composed in friendship by Karlheinz Stockhausen as a clarinet solo for Suzanne Stephens (pictured), and then adapted to the instruments of other friends?
on ALT1c then, promoter may weigh in if it is not clear. CMD (talk) 12:55, 18 October 2021 (UTC)
