Talk:Der Opernball

Lyrics misquoted?
I have not been able to find an authoritative copy of the German libretto, but I have listened to well known recordings of it (Schwartzkopf, Sills, Anna Netrebko, Brigitte Fassbaender.) Of these, only Sills sings "Komm mit mr...." All the others sing "Gehen wir...." So I think that's the correct lyric. Would somebody who has access to the libretto check this?

 * I think you're right, but both versions seem to be used. Google returns 6,580 results for "Komm mit mir ins Chambre séparée", 1,820 for ""Gehen wir ins Chambre séparée", and 1,400 for ""Geh'n wir ins Chambre séparée". But the libretto at http://www.opera-guide.ch/opera.php?id=167 shows "Geh'n wir ins Chambre séparée", as do pp. 30/31 of the libretto at https://archive.org/stream/deropernballoper1800heub#page/30/mode/2up. I suggest you change the article accordingly (and include those sources as well). -- Michael Bednarek (talk) 02:13, 16 August 2016 (UTC)
