translation of the title
editAs translation out of Schiller's Song of the Bell it should be ""I call the living, I mourn the dead, (I repel lightning)." But of course the composer's possible intentions are to be regarded first. But there's no reliable source to be found for the date of composition, it seems, on the internet. Most of the sources, indeed, point to 1980.--༄U-ji (talk) 08:14, 9 July 2017 (UTC)
- Fortunately, there are non-internet sources that should be able to settle this question. I will see what I can find.—Jerome Kohl (talk) 04:31, 10 July 2017 (UTC)
There are some: [1] which says 1980, "completed in 1980" [2], [3] (1980), [4], 1980. To be exact, all of the sources say 1980.--༄U-ji (talk) 20:09, 24 July 2017 (UTC) Ok, and I found an extract of Curtis Roads' Computer Music Tutorial with the quotation and "1981", so it doesn't need to be corrected.--༄U-ji (talk) 20:25, 24 July 2017 (UTC)
- Yes, the ones I found (already added to the article) are also unanimous on this.—Jerome Kohl (talk) 05:29, 25 July 2017 (UTC)
