    • @Gerda Arendt and Piotrus: I'm not sure I trust this scholarly analysis as the Definitive Wikivoice Interpretation of the composition. Could the hook be attributed or changed? theleekycauldron (talkcontribs) (she/her) 07:11, 11 October 2022 (UTC)
      It's not an interpretation, but what you can see in the written music. However, I'll see if I can find something else. I thought this was catchy for the general reader, but an attribution would make it clumsy. and saying the third time how great the Thomanerchor concert on 8 July was might be repetitive. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 07:38, 11 October 2022 (UTC)
      • Definitely catchy – possibly original research. Another hook would be appreciated, unless Piotrus has a different interpretation :) theleekycauldron (talkcontribs) (she/her) 07:55, 11 October 2022 (UTC)
        I showed the music now in LilyPond, you can listen. the socalled "interpretation" is just a description of the line. I will look at ALTs now, but thought every reader might profit from seeing and hearing it. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 08:10, 11 October 2022 (UTC)

ALT1: ... that Andreas Reize (pictured) ranked Wie lieblich sind deine Wohnungen, a choral setting of the first verses from Psalm 84 by Johann Hermann Schein, as one of three pinnacles of motets before Bach?
We probably can't say Thomaskantor, because when he said so he wasn't yet, but he'd likely say the same today. Perhaps the pic could be cropped? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 08:24, 11 October 2022 (UTC)
Gerda Arendt, theleekycauldron New ALT is ok. Main hook is borderline, but given "The swallow mentioned in the last line is illustrated by a leap down of an octave, and a slow rise afterward, like a swallows "dive"", I think it is not that far off. Maybe attribute it to the person who said that, and change "the flight of the swallow" the the "dive of the swallow"? --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 03:09, 12 October 2022 (UTC)
I am happy with ALT1, and have two "Recent deaths" articles waiting, and not even looked today. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 05:34, 12 October 2022 (UTC)
