Anna Korondi

 * ... that Anna Korondi appeared at the Bavarian State Opera as Zdenka in Arabella by Richard Strauss and in a leading role in the premiere of Aribert Reimann's Bernarda Albas Haus?

 * Comment: Women in Red music, hopefully there will be something about the opera until it appears

 * Symbol question.svg Created Jan. 26,nom Feb. 2/new enough. 1594 char/long enough. Neutral. Cited. No apparent copyvio. No image with nomination. QPQ done. Hook at 177 char under maximum. Bayreuther-festspiele source confirms that she was in Strauss's Arabella but does not mention the role. The Bach Cantatas site confirms she was in the premier of Reimann's La Casa de Bernarda Alba but doesn't say it was "a leading role", rather says it was the title role, which I believe is probably more prestigious? I am not sure if you wish to propose an ALT with corrections or provide additional sourcing to confirm the role for the first part of the hook. However, even if you don't choose to change the hook, the citation for the Reimann part of the hook is not at the end of the sentence making the claim, which is a DYK rule. Please ping me when corrections are done. Thanks for your continuing improvement and creation of music articles. SusunW (talk) 20:54, 6 February 2016 (UTC)


 * Thanks for looking into this, and how deeply. The Munich opera ref has Zdenka, will check. The title role of the Reimann would be "La Casa" which means the house, I found that too funny and tried "leading" instead, but perhaps it isn't even ;) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 21:50, 6 February 2016 (UTC)
 * Ok, I looked. Both parts are in the ref named Munich, last line of the top para. The opera seems to have a German title, I fixed that. She sang Adela, the youngest daughter of old Bernarda, - I linked to the play for those who want to find out. - Zdenka is perhaps the most interesting character in the Strauss opera, Arabella's sister who is dressed as a boy, because the parents try to find a husband for one daughter (Arabella) and can't afford to "offer" the second also ... --Gerda Arendt (talk) 22:09, 6 February 2016 (UTC)
 * LOL you crack me up. In English it would be Bernarda Alba's House, which would explain why they said it was the title role but now I will never be able to look at this without having the picture of a singing house in my mind's eye. SusunW (talk) 22:10, 6 February 2016 (UTC)
 * Symbol confirmed.svg With the adding of the citations and clarification from the Staatsoper cite, you are good to go. Still chuckling over the singing house. SusunW (talk) 22:15, 6 February 2016 (UTC)
 * Thanks. Changed the title to German, missed that. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 22:28, 6 February 2016 (UTC)
 * ...and in a leading role in the premiere... would be better grammar - I've corrected it. Grutness... wha?   00:41, 15 February 2016 (UTC)
