 * Symbol question.svg Looks very good, but I have one question. The last sentence mentions a premiere and the source states "UA" after the date. I only know "unter anderem", which this obviously is not, so is UA an abbreviation for "premiere" (and if so, wie heißt sie eigentlich)? Otherwise, the article is properly cited, is neutral, no plagiarism. I think you could add to the lede, though. She was a precocious little thing, and that would be interesting to have in the lede, how young she started studying music and having her first successes. I'm just talking a sentence or two.

 * Thanks for looking! (Finally someone had mercy, after both composers birthdays passed, 200 on 22 Oct, 49 on 2 Nov.) UA = "Uraufführung", it's pretty much understood in the context of music programs in German, DEA = Deutsche Erstaufführung = first performance in Germany. UA is supposed to be the one and only world premiere, but then you have revised versions ... - This one was the UA, and the composer wants to perform it again for his 50th birthday, quite a compliment, but not encyclopedic. Unfortunately the SZ was not there, too many concerts in Munich every weekend ... - I was cautious not to stress how young she is - her German article survived a delete discussion in 2008 - but if you think so I will try - and you add language? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 09:46, 4 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Ah, of course. I should have guessed that, but I was distracted and did not. Easier to ask then. Marrante (talk) 14:01, 4 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Symbol confirmed.svg This article is good to go! (I tweaked the hook and removed the comma, btw.) Marrante (talk) 14:04, 4 November 2011 (UTC)
