Talk:The Blue Bird (Stanford)

Discography needs work
I know there are several other recordings, including complete ones of op. 119. The Cambridge Singers is just one I happen to own. David Brooks (talk) 16:32, 21 December 2021 (UTC)
 * I found some more, but I expect there are others. David Brooks (talk) 02:30, 23 April 2022 (UTC)
 * I've expanded the discography and clarified that the section is a "Selected" discography. I imagine there's plenty of more amateur recordings which would expand the section even more, but I've focussed on ones from notable choirs and conductors. Unexpectedlydian (talk) 14:25, 14 May 2022 (UTC)

Expanding article and reliable sources sources
I am interested in expanding this article and have found some sources which cover its background and composition. I'll start expanding upon those themes. I'm also just going through the existing sources in the article. Starting from the top, I'm wondering if [1 ] and [2 ] are particularly reliable? [1] appears to be a blog, and [2] a programme note. If I come across the same information in another reliable source I may replace the citation. Unexpectedlydian (talk) 12:43, 2 May 2022 (UTC)

Position of generic partsong description
I hate to do this after GA approval, but I think the last sentence of "Context" (The form first became influential...early 19th century choral societies) doesn't really fit there. It belongs near the beginning of "Music and verse form", which provides the generic description of partsong. That said, there may be a conceptual clash between "intimate settings" and "choral societies". thoughts? David Brooks (talk) 22:23, 27 June 2022 (UTC)


 * It makes a "bridge" between sections, its a generic description with some history. The next section describes what really is into detail. Just because it is a GA, nothing is set into stone as articles can/should always be improved. However, I strongly believe both of you, who have a much better comprehension of the subject than I do, can make the right call. So if you too decided to move it somewhere else, I'm fine with it.
