Length, date, hooks checked out (ref for 2000 comes later; ALT1 perhaps best combination of RS and interest); good to go; but how ugly is English - mellifluosomnolent cantabile vs "singably", ugh; see extra discussion here for the translation (funny, as the poem reads "and" that the reverse translation sometimes ends up "of"), Maculosae tegmine lyncis (talk) 03:05, 26 May 2012 (UTC) P.S. Title made me think of

Thanks for looking into this light!
ps Title made me think of the image on my user with golden light rising to a pumpkin sky, designed first to get the editor of that name (or ps) back to contributing, and then the designer, both successfully so. - When you sing the piece, you forget the words, light prevails. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 06:38, 26 May 2012 (UTC)
ps The composer's article needs attention. If nothing happens until Main page appearance, I suggest to link not to his name but to section Virtual Choir instead, --Gerda Arendt (talk) 07:02, 26 May 2012 (UTC)
