Interesting new recording in MDG label, She was talented And Wikipedia mentioned her links with composers And teachers, Clara Schumann, Bargiel, Rheinberger, etc.

Wikipedia info, I think so that is one Excellent rescue about this neglected forgotten women composer

Thanks Alan!
Yes I like her music and she is on my list of 'to do' projects  :)
I have spent some time looking at the manuscripts and I own some CDs with music by her and a copy of the autobiography

Her PC is still on YT, FWIW.  Nice piece.
