"Morgenlich leuchtend im rosigen Schein"

Leo Slezak's 1910 Edison Records recording of Walther's Prize Song from Richard Wagner's Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg.

The song that all of Die Meistersinger, Wagner's opera about the creation and theory of music, revolves around. Wagner clearly intended this song, breaking all the old stuffy rules of the Meistersingers, to be a clear expression of his views of music, and hence, it is important and eminently featurable =)

Support per nom. Too important a composer to ignore. Durova^Charge! 19:07, 28 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Support per above--Banime (talk) 21:11, 28 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Support but please don't spam it over multiple articles - just on the relevant Leo Slezak and Meistersinger pages please. --Klein zach 02:39, 30 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- I've only put it in those and Richard Wagner - I think it's helpful to collect some samples in the composer articles Edit: and in 1868 in music, for obvious reasons. The "XXXX in music" articles are usually very poorly illustrated.. I'm not sure where else it could go, outside maybe Romantic music or something, if it illustrated some point well.

  - Hmm. If this is appropriate for Richard Wagner then so are thousands of other potential files as well. Please keep these files only in directly relevant articles. WP uses links - no reason to put duplicates all over the place! --Klein zach 03:52, 1 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
    - I really dont' think it's a good idea not to at least have some files in the main composer article. Certainly, we can be a bit selective, but we should include at least a few. Richard Wagner lacked any examples of Wagner for voice (as I recall), which is not ideal in such a predominantly opera composer. =) Shoemaker's Holiday (talk) 04:39, 1 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
      - Please refer this to the Wagner Project - they should be the people to decide. --Klein zach 08:50, 1 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Support for the Leo Slezak article but not in the Wagner pages. I would be astonished if the Wagner editors were content for this to remain on the Meistersinger page; at best, it would be a capricious choice. I would defer to their view, natch. Eusebeus (talk) 15:18, 1 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Well, the decision of which recordings was done on the Wagner page, and this was one of the two suggested of the set of 6 I provided. If they dislike it, I'm open to doing another. Shoemaker's Holiday (talk) 15:51, 1 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I love the song very much, but let's face it. The value of the sound is "historical aspects" coming from the composer, singer, and recording date, not the quality of the sound. The sound is in poor quality, so I must oppose to promote it. I think we're too mild on FS candidates compared to FP and FA/FL.--Caspian blue (talk) 04:53, 10 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
