 * Delete With one of the 2 sources being the subject's own website we do not have enough sources to show a passing of GNG.John Pack Lambert (talk) 16:20, 16 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep. The (non-)quality of one specific link in the article is not a reason for deletion. Is Christian Jost written about?

 *  Comment - Without knowledge of German, I can not conclude that the references above are valid. Furthermore, this article should be improved or redirected if it is to remain. --Jax 0677 (talk) 17:40, 25 February 2022 (UTC)
 * I do not mean to be inflammatory, but why should your lack of relevant language skills determine why this article gets deleted or not? In any case, there are plenty of English sources about his oeuvre. Atchom (talk) 01:25, 10 March 2022 (UTC)

 * Keep WP:ANYBIO criterion 1. The Ernst von Siemens Music Prize is prestigious ("the Nobel Prize of music" is maybe a tad overdramatic, but it clearly is "a well-known and significant award or honor".) Atchom (talk) 23:03, 8 March 2022 (UTC)
 * In addition, this passes WP:COMPOSER (2) "Has written musical theatre of some sort (includes musicals, operas, etc.) that was performed in a notable theatre that had a reasonable run, as such things are judged in their particular situation, context, and time" and (4) "Has written a composition that has won (or in some cases been given a second or other place) in a major music competition not established expressly for newcomers".
