Interesting topic, on good sources. The hooks are fine, but could be improved by pointing out that Mozart and Salieri were not supposed to have collaborated (to put it mildly). In the article: please familiarize the reader a bit more in the beginning. A translation right after the title, please, then the K. number, - also an infobox might help, an image caption which says more precisely what we see. On the other hand, I don't think the complete text is needed. I confess not to understand what Cornetti composed. You might point out that he has not been identified right when mentioning him the first time. How about the image here? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 19:45, 23 February 2016 (UTC)

Thanks very much for your interest, and I appreciate the sound suggestions. Nominated for DYK? I am absolutely floored.—Swmmng (talk) 19:16, 24 February 2016 (UTC)

Thank you for changes! I remember the feeling of my first article being nominated (after it was deleted first). - (Thanks for thank-you-clicks, but one per day per article is enough!) - Now please get something like "collaborative" in a hook ;) - I can't because if I word a hook I can't review it. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 19:31, 24 February 2016 (UTC)

The score was discovered in November, not December. Ergo,

ALT2: ... that Mozart and Salieri's lost collaborative cantata Per la ricuperata salute di Ofelia (museum display pictured) was discovered at a music museum in Prague in November 2015?—Swmmng (talk) 23:51, 24 February 2016 (UTC)

Thank you. I would turn it the other way round - we want readers for the cantata, not Mozart and Salieri:

ALT3: ... that Per la ricuperata salute di Ofelia, a collaborative cantata by Mozart and Salieri, was lost but found in a music museum in Prague in 2015 (museum display pictured)?

Indeed, this hook's values are in sublime order. Very nice.—Swmmng (talk) 17:42, 25 February 2016 (UTC)
