The Swan
Le cygne is the thirteenth and most notable of the fourteen movements of Camille Saint-Saëns' The Carnival of the Animals. It was written as a cello solo with accompaniment of a piano. This is a slight variation on that arrangement. Since this is a video of a White House performance, I assume it is very high caliber. This file adds significantly to the following articles:
 * Le cygne
 * Camille Saint-Saëns
 * The Carnival of the Animals
 * Alisa Weilerstein


 * Nominate and support. TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 00:00, 5 May 2011 (UTC)

 * Oppose - The piece is originally scored for cello and two pianos. The marimba which replaced the piano is rather overpowering, and seems to be off-rhythm in a couple places near the end. This will need to be marked as an arrangement - and something of a novelty arrangement, at that - and I much prefer the John Michael version. Adam Cuerden (talk) 18:37, 5 May 2011 (UTC)
 * I see you removed the audio only version from The Carnival of the Animals and Le cygne. I had included them because the video loaded so slowly on my computer.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 20:11, 5 May 2011 (UTC)
 * I have been awaiting a response. I am going to readd the audio only version for the reason stated above.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 00:03, 10 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Suspended pending the outcome of this discussion. — James (Talk • Contribs) • 5:01pm • 07:01, 11 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Relisted - voting restarted. — James (Talk • Contribs) • 1:27pm • 03:27, 13 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Do you mean restarted or resumed?--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 04:04, 13 May 2011 (UTC)
 * I obviously still nominate and Support.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 04:07, 13 May 2011 (UTC)
 * The voting period got restarted not voting. Sorry, lack of clarification on my part. — James (Talk • Contribs) • 4:54pm • 06:54, 13 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Oppose - Novelty arrangement that doesn't even sound that good. Graham 87 07:44, 18 May 2011 (UTC)
