José Carlos Cocarelli
[edit]- ... that José Carlos Cocarelli studied the piano in New York on a scholarship from the Brazilian government and won important competitions?
- ALT1:... that a New York Times review noted pianist José Carlos Cocarelli's "thoughtful rubatos and ... almost brooding intensity"?
- Reviewed: Wilhelm Münter Rolfsen
- Comment: I would prefer to say something about his playing rather than competitions, but am not yet happy with the wording. See also talk page. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 22:07, 24 July 2014 (UTC)
5x expanded by Voceditenore (talk), Gerda Arendt (talk). Nominated by Gerda Arendt (talk) at 22:07, 24 July 2014 (UTC).
- Comment: Voceditenore did so much that I am almost ashamed to list myself also as a contributor any more. However, I started expanding, and I almost got blocked for it ;)
- ALT2:... that Brazilian pianist José Carlos Cocarelli made a "risky choice for a music competition", playing an atonal piece which Ronaldo Miranda had composed for him? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 07:33, 25 July 2014 (UTC)
- Yes, ALT2 is probably a better hook. The first two don't seem particularly 'beguiling' to the reader. Gerda, what talk page are you referring to when you say "See also talk page"? I don't see anything related to these hooks at Talk:José Carlos Cocarelli. But maybe I'm missing something? Voceditenore (talk) 07:51, 25 July 2014 (UTC)
- sorry, José Carlos Cocarelli, related not to the specific hooks, but the person, --Gerda Arendt (talk) 07:54, 25 July 2014 (UTC)
Full review needed. BlueMoonset (talk) 02:28, 12 August 2014 (UTC)
Hook and date are fine. Expansion is closer to tenfold than fivefold, fantastic work! AGF on the source (I don't speak Spanish, but I have no reason to doubt the authors). Good to go. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 22:01, 5 September 2014 (UTC)
