Not enough coverage in independent, reliable sources to verify or sustian article. Fails Wikipedia's General Notability Guidelines and WP:COMPOSER. All of the coverage cited in the article are rewordings of this press release in German. This is a case of WP:TOOSOON J bh  Talk  13:52, 20 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Withdrawn by nominator Based on the material identified in the non-English press there is enough to sustain an article that is not simply regurgitation of a press release as is seen in the US media. Well done on the part of for finding this material. Additionally, the identification of potential scholarly review of her work by  is enough to push me over the top and withdraw.

 * Delete: as per @Jbhunley -- fails GNG, WP:COMPOSER. Quis separabit?  14:36, 20 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep She is already a well-known composer in Poland. She has work reviewed by Polityka. Just because sources are scarce in English doesn't make her not notable. I added a number of sources and found her work reviewed in a music journal from EBSCOhost database, too. I'm sure Lexis Nexus will turn up more. I'll see what I can add from other databases when I have access on site this week. I do agree that she's early in her career, but there's enough to keep and add to.Megalibrarygirl (talk) 15:39, 20 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep Some of the sources are in German, and perhaps some do restate a single press release, but basic autobiographic material does often cite to a press kit; these do appear to be reliable third-party sources, and looks like Megalibrarygirl has found more sources. It appears to meet GNG.   Montanabw (talk)  04:17, 22 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep Reviewing the scholarly literature potential, (since she has won numerous juried scholarships I assumed there would be some), I find that though I don't have access, there are sources which have reviewed her work. OPERAcja analyzed "Jagoda Szmytka's For Voices" per the snippet synopsis I can see; Dissonance / Dissonanz gives an overview of Szmytka's work analyzing various pieces; Tempo Quarterly Review "Four high-profile performances from this year's Darmstadt Summer Courses serve as useful case studies in these discussions: Jagoda Szmytka's ..." Wiki guidelines do not require that the sources be cited, but that they exist. Clearly there are articles which exist and her works would not be being analyzed if they were not deemed notable. Perhaps someone who does have access to these types of materials can flesh out the article. SusunW (talk) 18:25, 22 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep, just found - on top of the above -, a commission by a notable radio station, performed by ensemble recherche --Gerda Arendt (talk) 19:01, 22 September 2015 (UTC)
