... that Marc Soustrot conducted at the Frankfurt Opera a staging of both Debussy's cantata La Damoiselle élue and Honegger's oratorio Jeanne d'Arc au bûcher? Source: several, including praise, but there seems to be no room for it in the hook.

Meets criteria for newness, length, neutrality. Appropriately cited, seems free from inappropriate paraphrase or plagiarism.
Hook length OK. Hook is accurate, and I guess interesting to a broad enough potential audience.
QPQ undertaken.

Hi, I came by to promote this, but notice that two paragraphs under Recordings lack any cites at all, per WP:DYKSG#D2. Also, what do you think about using the language in the article, in the hook?
ALT1: ~~... that in 2017 Marc Soustrot conducted a double bill of Debussy's cantata La Damoiselle élue and Honegger's oratorio Jeanne d'Arc au bûcher at the Frankfurt Opera?~~ Yoninah (talk) 22:05, 12 July 2017 (UTC)

Will have to look for citations tomorrow (check BNF and DNB in the authority control for now), too tired. "Double bill" suggests (to me) they played one piece, then the other. But they played the two as one, if you know what I mean, same stage, no break. Don't know how to say that. Highly unusual. (The Debussy had never been performed in Frankfurt at all, not even "unstaged".) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 22:12, 12 July 2017 (UTC)

refs added to recordings --Gerda Arendt (talk) 22:22, 13 July 2017 (UTC)

Thanks for the refs. I guess we'll go with your original hook. Restoring tick per Smerus' review. Yoninah (talk) 20:48, 17 July 2017 (UTC)
