  • Article length, date, and general compliance with policy all check out. Hook, however, is not very interesting. I mean, what is special about an orchestra playing Bach? I suggest a hook about one of the two awards they won instead. --ThaddeusB (talk) 01:53, 16 August 2013 (UTC)
  • I was thrilled by the orchestra singing (!) Bach! Never ever did I hear such a thing (the continuo players rising, the others stood anyway), it shows spirit and dedication. The hook also covers that they collaborate with some of the greatest artists there are. Better wording? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 07:08, 16 August 2013 (UTC)
  • I think an award hook is more interesting, but as you wish. The hook has been verified by the provided citations and is approved. (I changed "players" to "musicians" for clarity.) --ThaddeusB (talk) 03:52, 18 August 2013 (UTC)
