Thank you for thinking of him! Today's story has 3 composers, I couldn't decide for the one on the Main page or the one who didn't make it on his bicentenary, so took both, and the pic has a third.

On 14 September 2024, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Tilman Michael, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Tilman Michael, who is set to be the Metropolitan Opera's chorus master from the 2024/25 season, helped the Oper Frankfurt win multiple awards for operatic choir of the year? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Tilman Michael. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Tilman Michael), and the hook may be added to the statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.
