Hi WJifar (WMF). Thank you for accepting a report and thank you for your interest to the project and questions. New uploads are still in progress. I had quite a difficult winter and unfortunately did not succed with it yet. As for today I counted 35 files and plan to increase up to 50. Hope to update the information soon.
As for changes we are thinking about a special nomination for own translation by a singer. This could motivate singers to pertorm more translations and to envolve more vocal works into the project. Also I`m thinking about preparing new free translation by Schubert, Schumann and Vagner in a same way as it was done in Chopin project a year ago - singers and poets who have a gift for vocal translation will collaborate on a list of works by this composers. If this project will succed we could enlarge a list of translated works proposed and increase a choice of free translations in this way. I`m thinking forward for the next vocal contest though I`m not sure we`ll be ready for it soon. --A1 (talk) 20:32, 10 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
