 * Thanks for offering to review this article, IB. I look forward to addressing any concerns you may have. --- Another Believer ( Talk ) 17:51, 4 March 2016 (UTC)


 * Correct dead links
 * I cannot find a replacement for the KQAC link, and the Internet Archive / Wayback Machine does not help. I added the "dead link" tag, but does this mean the content needs to be removed altogether? --- Another Believer ( Talk ) 14:32, 5 March 2016 (UTC)
 * released by Dutch record label Pentatone in February 2015 --> Why not mention the actual release date?
 * Done. --- Another Believer ( Talk ) 14:26, 5 March 2016 (UTC)

 * Done. --- Another Believer ( Talk ) 14:26, 5 March 2016 (UTC)
 * It received a Grammy Award nomination for Best Orchestral Performance --> replace "It" with the album name
 * Done. --- Another Believer ( Talk ) 14:26, 5 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Split the first line of the first para in Background section into two.
 * Done. --- Another Believer ( Talk ) 14:26, 5 March 2016 (UTC)
 * The album was the third recorded during Carlos Kalmar's tenure --> Same comment as the one in the lead

 * Done. --- Another Believer ( Talk ) 14:27, 5 March 2016 (UTC)
 * and received its premier by Serge Koussevitzky conducting the Boston Symphony Orchestra on October 18, 1946 --> and was premiered by Serge Koussevitzky conducting the Boston Symphony Orchestra on October 18, 1946
 * Done. --- Another Believer ( Talk ) 14:27, 5 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Same for the third symphony, why are we using colons here?
 * Done. The colons were added by a copy editor, but I agree, they are unnecessary. --- Another Believer ( Talk ) 14:26, 5 March 2016 (UTC)
 * link stream to streaming media
 * Done. --- Another Believer ( Talk ) 14:26, 5 March 2016 (UTC)
 * The album received a Grammy Award nomination for Best Orchestral Performance, marking the third for Kalmar and the orchestra --> Link the particular year ceremony here somewhere
 * Done. --- Another Believer ( Talk ) 14:26, 5 March 2016 (UTC)
 * I'm having a readability issue with the Track list. Can't we use the track list template here?
 * Well, I am not sure how to use the track list template to display information for one classical composition comprising multiple album tracks. Any idea? --- Another Believer ( Talk ) 14:26, 5 March 2016 (UTC)
 * In the credits section, the footers regarding denoting who is what, can you make it internal wiki-redirects? Like when one clicks on the symbol of ^, it takes them down to " denotes guest musicians".
 * I am not sure how to do this, nor do I think linking is necessary. The symbol definitions are directly below where the symbols are being used. --- Another Believer ( Talk ) 14:26, 5 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Remove the publisher parameters from whichever references you are using, one glance I saw AllMusic and The Oregonian.
 * There is no harm having publishers displayed once. You'll notice the publisher is displayed only the first time a source is being used (The Oregonian, for example). --- Another Believer ( Talk ) 14:26, 5 March 2016 (UTC)
 * For PDF documents mention page numbers.
 * Done. --- Another Believer ( Talk ) 14:26, 5 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Online available web links you don't need to give ISSN numbers.
 * Done. --- Another Believer ( Talk ) 14:26, 5 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Conversely, you would have to give publisher ID/media ID for the cite album notes that you have given, along with the location where the album notes was generated, year etc.
 * Added year. --- Another Believer ( Talk ) 14:26, 5 March 2016 (UTC)

 * Thank you for reviewing this article. I believe I have addressed your concerns, though I did have a question re: the KQAC dead link and I did not remove all publishers. --- Another Believer ( Talk ) 14:33, 5 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Its okay, they were suggestions just anyways and not strict for GA criteria. Congratulations I'm passing the article as a GA now. — I B  [ Poke  ] 11:32, 6 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Thanks so much! --- Another Believer ( Talk ) 16:26, 6 March 2016 (UTC)
