editWith Glazunov's 150 birthday coming up, I started Cantata after Pushkin and wonder if you could help to find the texts on which it is based and whatever more? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 22:49, 3 August 2015 (UTC)
- I've asked a friend over on ru.wiki. INeverCry 02:58, 4 August 2015 (UTC)
- The Cantata was just dedicated to Pushkin's birthday anniversary and was based on the verses of another "poet", K. R. See [1]. Actually, I don't think those verses can inspire anyone. Sealle (talk) 04:50, 4 August 2015 (UTC)
- Thanks for the help. Ironic that he was exiled and hounded by one Romanov and then "memorialized" by another... INeverCry 05:12, 4 August 2015 (UTC)
- Thank you for the help, both. I was afraid that the name I found in the works list was not really "common", which one should I take then? Can you word the above in the article? I think it's interesting! --Gerda Arendt (talk) 05:55, 4 August 2015 (UTC)
- Could you help to the Russian equivalents of the names and movement titles? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 06:38, 4 August 2015 (UTC)

- And what names would you like to transliterate? Sealle (talk) 11:50, 4 August 2015 (UTC)
- Thank you, very helpful. Names: the different names of the piece. I now chose the recorded name as the article title, but that may be not the best choice. Better than Cantata after Puschkin anyway. The score also has short names of the movements Chorus, Berceuse, Aria and Hymn. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 11:56, 4 August 2015 (UTC)

IMHO, the current article name looks nice. Sealle (talk) 12:15, 4 August 2015 (UTC)
- Thank you so much! Will you take that to the article? I am a bit busy at the moment. If not I will do it later. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 13:23, 4 August 2015 (UTC)
- Most Russian now in the article (not the beginning of the movements yet. Next question: recorded version is with orchestra, score for piano? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 15:26, 4 August 2015 (UTC)
- One more: "the original titles you can find here" - well, not easy for me ;) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 15:30, 4 August 2015 (UTC)
- RE: recorded version. I think the best way to find it out is to listen, pushing play buttons on the page. Sealle (talk) 15:55, 4 August 2015 (UTC)
- RE: original titles. I've added the full original text as external media. Sealle (talk) 15:55, 4 August 2015 (UTC)
