Article is long enough and new enough. The hook is short enough and sourced in-line. QPQ done. My only problem is that the "awards" section doesn't have any sources. Also, the paragraph about his productions seems superfluous given that all the productions mentioned are also in the "Opera Productions" list. What do you think?

- Thank you, I referenced all but one prizes and dropped that (old) one. - If I remove the prose about the operas, the article will be too short for DYK because the list (translated from German) doesn't count. I found two more sources with many more opera titles ;) - If this was the only article I'm interested in I'd do more to find singers, conductors and stage directors, but ... - DYK that I saw that Così? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 20:26, 5 October 2017 (UTC)
The references you added for the awards look good. I understand what you're saying about the opera prose--the way it is now should be fine. Rachel Helps (BYU) (talk) 21:00, 5 October 2017 (UTC)
