Generally grand—certainly fine for the purpose here. Lead is pretty light, though, and could easily be doubled in size or more (for instance, the entire "Music" heading seems mostly unrepresented; suggest mentioning the three-movement structure and the pentatonic nature of the piece). Assuming good faith on the German sources because Chrome's translation function appears to have borked out on me right now. AGF on the image as well, would be nice to see it used on the main page (colour can be overrated). GRAPPLE X 04:19, 24 February 2012 (UTC)
