... that "Christ fuhr gen Himmel" (Christ rose to Heaven) is based on a medieval Leise and was sung by both Catholics and Protestants ~~already in~~as early as the 16th century? Source: several

Comment: would have been best for Ascension, but was written then ..., now best before Pentecost which is soon, sorry

add comment: it was a redirect, I failed to fill the para. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 11:06, 16 May 2018 (UTC)

New enough, long enough, neutrally written, well referenced, no close paraphrasing seen in English-language sources. Regarding the hook verification, I see the cite for the 1567 Catholic hymnal but no cite or source for the 1545 Lutheran hymnal. Image is freely licensed. QPQ done.

The use of "already" seems a little odd. Suggest "...was sung by both Catholics and Protestants as early as the 16th century?" --Khajidha (talk) 15:00, 17 May 2018 (UTC)

Good idea, thanks. Yoninah (talk) 18:32, 17 May 2018 (UTC)

Thank you, both. Ref for Babst added. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 21:05, 17 May 2018 (UTC)

Thank you. Foreign-language hook refs AGF and cited inline. Good to go for May 18 or May 19. Yoninah (talk) 21:19, 17 May 2018 (UTC)
