(Pasted from above) I don't know if the "cast" section needs sources. Technically all paragraphs are sourced to at least one citation, but the cast doesn't have sources at all.

The article says that the three sisters are sung by countertenors, but doesn't say the composer wanted it. This isn't a really big deal, but I think the wording needs clarification. --epicgenius (talk) 14:47, 20 September 2018 (UTC)

Thank you, good catch. I found that section, and didn't change it when expanding. Will do, but please have patience, going to travel and not yet prepared. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 18:50, 20 September 2018 (UTC)

I found a good new source, printed today, about the countertenors: [1], in the article. Will take care of the cast thing. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 21:16, 3 October 2018 (UTC)

@Gerda Arendt: Sorry about this. I've been busy over the past few weeks. since all issues have been resolved, it looks good to go. epicgenius (talk) 12:57, 18 October 2018 (UTC)
