Leichtgesinnte Flattergeister, BWV 181
[edit]- ... that the Bach cantata for Sexagesima, Leichtgesinnte Flattergeister, BWV 181, ends in a chorus of "madrigalian lightness and delicacy perfectly appropriate to the joyous message of the parable"?
- Reviewed: Roy Royston and Little Nellie Kelly (musical)
- Comment: Sexagesima is 12 February, good between 11 and 17

Everything's fine, except for "unusually". I didn't see that in the article. It may be obvious that it's unusual to someone who's knowledgeable about Bach, but as far as I know, all of his cantatas could have such choruses of madrigalian lightness and delicacy. Can "unusually" simply be removed from the hook? It would work fine without it. MANdARAX • XAЯAbИAM 23:48, 8 February 2012 (UTC)
- Yes. (We had some critic here who always wanted a stress on the unusual.) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 00:06, 9 February 2012 (UTC)
Okay, I've removed "unusually", and it's good to go. (Oh, it's generally preferred that links not appear in quotes, but I think it's fine here.) MANdARAX • XAЯAbИAM 00:18, 9 February 2012 (UTC)
- You were so kind to ask about the day this should appear. I couldn't care less. I care about Khazar leaving and PumpkinSky blocked. How about 13 February, date of first performance? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 11:43, 9 February 2012 (UTC)
