there's a new name to me (and a pseudonym besides) ... but she composed, at least according to Wikipedia, piano concertos (... do they survive?) and 2 operas among other works. There's a little music by her @ IMSLP. Born Elizaveta von Schultz in St. Petersburg in 1846, became a piano student of Henselt early on..., - (eventually died in Bonn in 1926; the article about her in Wikipedia is rather interesting... here.) Has anyone here seen much of her music, heard any of it?

Thanks...

Excerpts of her Preludes for voice and piano have been broadcast years ago. I recorded them but can no longer find the cassette.
But a complete recording is available:
