The result was redirect to List of compositions by Max Bruch where it's mentioned. Anyone is free to add some content to the artist's article. (non-admin closure) ASTIG😎 _{(ICE T • ICE CUBE)} 11:00, 29 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The only reference is a YouTube link, which is not acceptable. The listed Fifield book makes no reference to this obscure work, if it exists. In fact, I can't find any reliable sources about this work. Probably does not meet notability criteria. intforce (talk) 10:59, 22 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• Redirect to Max Bruch in case anyone searches for the title. Classical experts may have more to say here, but it appears to me that the article is copied from minor book entries, which is not enough for Wikipedia. Brief mentions of the composition can be found in directories of classical works but it does not appear to have attracted the professional research that leads to notability in that realm. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 15:20, 22 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• Yes, Redirect to Max Bruch, and move the material to that article, where it will fit nicely, with good context, and without unbalancing the article on the composer himself. That way, nothing is lost, and the existence of such a tender gift of a young composer can still be found in Wikipedia by those who are interested. But it is difficult to justify a stand-alone article on a song that, by the article's own admission, may only have been performed once in nearly 200 years.
