 * ... that the sound of the Fantasy Opera Gormenghast by Irmin Schmidt, based on the Gormenghast Trilogy, has been described as "gloriously, unashamedly lush"?

 * Symbol question.svg New enough=yes.  Long enough=yes.  Free of copyright problems=yes.  Cites sources=yes.  Hook as presented technically passes, but it borders on self-referential as it is from liner notes promoting recording of opera.  Quote from Wolk or Lintz would be superior, as these are direct references.   78.26  (I'm no IP, talk to me!) 15:59, 19 July 2013 (UTC)


 * Thank you for looking. Since nomination, the article blossomed, thanks to Voceditenore. Let's try:
 * ALT1: that the Fantasy Opera Gormenghast by Irmin Schmidt, the former keyboarder of can, is performed by live singers and string quartet to prerecorded orchestra and electronics?
 * ALT2: that in his Fantasy Opera Gormenghast, Irmin Schmidt scored parts for two rock tenors and a lyric tenor?
 * ALT3: that the Fantasy Opera Gormenghast by Irmin Schmidt was performed at the UNESCO World Heritage Site Völklingen Ironworks? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 16:24, 19 July 2013 (UTC)
 * Symbol confirmed.svg I would use ALT3, as it has the strongest citation support.  Good to go.   78.26  (I'm no IP, talk to me!) 16:48, 19 July 2013 (UTC)
