Hook and date ok, length also ok as x5 expansion with vast bulk of previous content outside the character count per eligibility criteria, as "lists, and tables etc". Don't know whether these alternative hooks might work (I don't think the choral section itself is BWV 12 - synecdoche issue?):

ALT 1: ... that John Eliot Gardiner described Weinen, Klagen, Sorgen, Zagen, the first choral section in the 1714 Bach cantata, as a "tombeau ... most impressive and deeply affecting"?

ALT 2: ... that John Eliot Gardiner described the first choral section of Weinen, Klagen, Sorgen, Zagen, BWV 12, the 1714 cantata by JS Bach, as a "tombeau ... most impressive and deeply affecting"?

ALT 3: ... that John Eliot Gardiner described the first choral section of Weinen, Klagen, Sorgen, Zagen, the 1714 cantata by JS Bach, as a "tombeau ... most impressive and deeply affecting"?

• Thanks for looking and ce! Right about BWV 12, links to Bach were unwanted last summer (known like the U.S.):

ALT 5: ... that in the 1714 Bach cantata Weinen, Klagen, Sorgen, Zagen, BWV 12, the first choral section was described as a "tombeau ... most impressive and deeply affecting"?

Good to go with ALT5 - length, date, hook all checked out - April 29 please, Maculosae tegmine lyncis (talk) 15:29, 25 April 2012 (UTC)
