Talk:Liebeslieder Walzer

columns
The reason for the empty first column is that many ballets, Western Symphony, Symphony in C and The Four Seasons for instance, have named movements that sit in column one. I've left it blank on ballets that don't have such names because there are lists of entire ballet seasons where some do and some don't, but all should line up (see List of New York City Ballet 2008 Spring repertory; see also List of Western Symphony casts.) In such lists the title of the ballet is also found in the leftmost column. — Robert Greer (talk) 03:19, 6 November 2009 (UTC)

Liebeslieder Walzer disambiguation page needed
This article is principally about Balanchine's ballet, but 'Liebeslieder' has several other meanings likely to be confused with it, including the two original sets of Brahms songs on which the ballet is based. To add to the confusion, Strauss wrote a similarly titled waltz unconnected with the ballet. Probably we need a disambiguation page Liebeslieder (disambiguation) saying something like

Liebeslieder may refer to love songs in general (the literal German meaning) or to these specific works:
 * Liebeslieder (Strauss Opus 114) a waltz by Johann Strauss II.
 * Liebeslieder Walzer (Brahms Opus 52) songs for four-hands piano and SATB voices
 * Neue Liebeslieder Walzer (Brahms Opus 65) a sequel to Opus 52, for piano and voices
 * Liebeslieder Walzer (ballet) Balanchine's ballet based on the two Brahms works,

There are already separate articles titled Liebeslieder (on Strauss Opus 114), Neue Liebeslieder (on Brahms Opus 65) and Liebeslieder Walzer (this article, on the ballet), but they should be renamed as indicated above and a new article, which needn't be very long, created for Liebeslieder Walzer (Brahms Opus 52), which remains a popular choral work. Unfortunately I don't know how to do all this redirecting. CharlesHBennett (talk) 02:48, 17 April 2013 (UTC)
