Symphony for Organ No. 6 (Widor)

 * ... that Charles-Marie Widor premiered his Symphony for Organ No. 6 at the Palais du Trocadéro for the inauguration of the Cavaillé-Coll organ (pictured) on 24 August 1878 as part of the Paris World Exhibition? Source:, p VIII
 * Reviewed: Torrance Barrens
 * Comment: best on 24 August - I hope we can have it pictured, because that unusual image is so far unused.

 * Symbol question.svg Well-written and adequately sourced. Meets DYK criteria. Should the hook say, "... Paris World Exposition..." to be clear in the reader's mind? Also, have you considered the other Commons images of the Trocadéro organ, instead of this photo of a model?  JGHowes   talk  03:00, 22 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Thank you for the review! I added Paris. Yes, I considered the images and found this one the most attractive in small size. After DYK, I'll take one of the others, but until - sadly - it has to be the same in hook and article ;) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 07:24, 22 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Symbol confirmed.svg Good to go. As an organist myself, I look forward to seeing this on the Main Page, hopefully on 24 August as you noted.  JGHowes   talk  12:23, 22 July 2018 (UTC)
