Article assessment

edit

Now that the new "C-class" has been created, I moved the article assessment to C. The creation of this new class has raised the bar for "B-class" articles (See Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/2008-06-23/Dispatches). This article needs more information and references to be comprehensive, including:

  • A background/genesis section about how it came to be written and why Cranko, Sadler's Wells and Mackerras wanted to create this work. Why did Mackerras choose the particular music that he chose?
  • A critical and audience reception section.
  • A "musical analysis" section, expanding on the quote from Hughes and exploring other sources. The operas from which the themes for each section are noted, but the article could note which musical numbers from those operas are quoted.
  • A description of the original choreography and later choreographies and more description of other notable aspects of the productions. Were there any notable principal dancers in any of the productions?
  • What is the place of this work in the field of modern ballet? Did it have any impact on other ballets?
  • The information on recordings should be expanded.
  • More research and references, and the information already there needs in-line references. See: WP:CITE.
  • It needs images and illustrations of the productions and/or musical examples. -- Ssilvers (talk) 13:44, 27 June 2008 (UTC)Reply
