Grammatical point from awhile back: changing 'was premiered' to 'premiered' makes sense only if the rest of the sentence is balanced to reflect the changed: Original sentence — It was premiered on October 18, 1923 at the Paris Opera by Marcel Darrieux with the Paris Opera Orchestra under Serge Koussevitzky.

New sentence after the change - It premiered on October 18, 1923 at the Paris Opera by Marcel Darrieux with the Paris Opera Orchestra under Serge Koussevitzky ... something's missing, e.g. 'by' and 'and' (instead of under) or something else. Made a stopgap change but it could be made more flowing. Schissel : bowl listen 18:15, Mar 24, 2005 (UTC)

Now, a paragraph starts, 'The failure of the Paris premiere...', but there is no previous reference to or detail on this failure. Martin Hogbin (talk) 16:48, 25 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I'll look into that now. Alfietucker (talk) 16:50, 25 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
It is better now. Is there anything that can be added to say what is meant by 'failure'? Martin Hogbin (talk) 17:39, 25 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I think I addressed that even as you were writing your comment. :-) Alfietucker (talk) 17:55, 25 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
