Franz Kafka died 100 years ago OTD, hence the story. I uploaded a few pics from the visit of Graham87. -- Gerda Arendt (talk) 21:35, 3 June 2024 (UTC)Reply

Gerda Arendt Thanks so much for sharing your updates. Love the story of Franz Kafka and your photos - and I think that one of the places, Ehrenbach, was the home of some of my relatives many hundreds of years ago. I always love the information that you share. Thanks for catching that I am back! I hope you are doing well. Such pretty roses!–CaroleHenson (talk) 22:05, 3 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
Thank you, and very small world, - it's where I live. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 22:10, 3 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
Gerda Arendt That's really cool!–CaroleHenson (talk) 22:20, 3 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
Yes! - Today is "the day" for James Joyce, also for Bach's fourth chorale cantata (and why does it come before the third?) - the new pics have a mammal I had to look up --Gerda Arendt (talk) 19:06, 16 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
New pics of food and flowers come with the story of Noye's Fludde (premiered on 18 June), written by Brian Boulton. I nominated Éric Tappy because he died, and it needs support today! I nominated another women for GA in the Women in Green June run, - review welcome, and more noms planned. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 13:14, 18 June 2024 (UTC)Reply

July music

Pictured on the Main page: Brian's Mozart family grand tour, my story today, and Mozart related to all three items of music on my talk: our 2023 concert, an opera in a theatre where a Mozart premiere took place, and those remembered, Martti Wallén, a bass, and Liana Isakadze, a violinist from Georgia (whose article would be better with more details about her music-making). -- Gerda Arendt (talk) 11:02, 9 July 2024 (UTC)Reply

Today's story is about an outstanding violinist from Georgia, which is a sad story in the end. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 13:42, 11 July 2024 (UTC)Reply

Gerda Arendt, Thanks for your posts. I really enjoyed both stories about the Mozart Family Grand Tour and Liana Isakadze. I enjoyed reading about the family and Mozart's sister... and the courts, churches, and other places they visited and performed at over their tour. I've never read the detail about their grand tour, so that was quite fun and interesting. Ms. Isakadze is quite impressive.–CaroleHenson (talk) 19:12, 11 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
Thank you, - you can click on "story" every day ;) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 19:38, 11 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
I remember today Bach's 1724 cantata for this Sunday which is unusual in many respects. Another woman needs attention for RD, Marina Kondratyeva. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 19:23, 14 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
She's on the Main page now. My story today is - because of the anniversary of the premiere OTD in 1782 - about Die Entführung aus dem Serail, opera by Mozart, while yesterday's was - because of the TFA - about Les contes d'Hoffmann, opera by Offenbach, - so 3 times Mozart again if you click on "music" ;) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 11:41, 16 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
