I'll review this. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) 21:26, 18 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Images are appropriately tagged. I haven't seen a rendered midi file before but the tag seems right. Earwig finds no issues; sources are reliable. Spotchecks -- some sources are unavailable so the choice here is limited:

FN 2 cites "The juxtaposition of elegant and low life is humorous, sometimes burlesque, but always graceful and sympathetic". The source is quite long; the closest I can find to this is "Ancient and Christian mythology and Swedish drinking figures, not only from Stockholm, were brought together into a both learned and burlesque, rather bizarre whole, one of the strangest works that Swedish literature has to offer." which is not a very precise match. Am I missing the relevant passage?
- I think you have it; I've added another ref to Britten Austin 1967, with quotation, which certainly fills it out a bit more. Chiswick Chap (talk) 09:27, 19 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
~~FN 2 also cites "A solo entertainer, he played the cittern, accompanying himself as he performed his songs at the royal court" -- can you point me at the passage in the source that supports this?~~

More later, probably tomorrow. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) 21:56, 18 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

We have "Fredmans sånger" in the lead, but "Fredman's Songs" in the body. I would think the English is probably the better option since this is not a widely known title.

Fixed.

"At the same time as depicting this reality": I think "reality" is not the word we want here, as it is no less fictional than the nymphs.

Reworded.

I think "Rococo" should be lower case.

Done.

"when he wrote his famous diary entry": suggest "a" rather than "his".

Done.

Are there any notable modern recordings? Is it a regular part of the modern repertoire?

Added two recordings. It seems to be less usual in the modern repertoire.

Fixes look good; passing. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) 15:28, 19 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I put it in Music rather than Languages and literature, but feel free to move it if you think that's incorrect. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) 15:31, 19 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
