Rating[edit]

I've given this a complete guess at a rating. It's missing some important sections, but I think the reader would, at least, end up with some decent information. Shoemaker's Holiday (talk) 03:00, 15 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

What's needed[edit]

This needs a proper plot summary, and a bit more background information on Handel and Ottoboni. This isn't a major work, and it only being first published 10 years ago doesn't help either, so I think it's fair to say that having those sections, we could probably consider this reasonably complete.

Cantata / Oratorio[edit]

If Ero e Leandro is a cantata, why is it included in the template {{Handel}} as an oratorio? Michael Bednarek (talk) 04:52, 15 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

That's exactly what I came to this page to ask . . . and the answer? --Klein zach 02:28, 16 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Pretty much that I need to add a cantata section to the Handel template and haven't yet. Shoemaker's Holiday (talk) 03:22, 16 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Done. -- Michael Bednarek (talk) 07:14, 16 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
