Unfortunetly, there is only one piece -- Etude Romantique, Op. 132 -- that I know of no previous recording. Kinda disappointing given how many there are yet. Still, any more push to get her visible is a good thing.
It's a future release (29th September) at MDT:

I would dearly love to hear her choral symphony "Les Amazones".
The Etude Romantique was recorded by Christine Harnisch on Audiophon Classics AU 31473: Concerto etudes and toccatas by 19th and 20th century women composers.
I was excited when I saw this release but quickly realised there is nothing new on it and plenty that I have many recordings of in my collection. I not complaining about someone recording this repertoire but not a disc for me this time.
If we're talking French salon repertoire what about Isidor Phillip? His etudes in double notes are amazing (check out the 78rpm recordings of two of them on Naxos 8.111219 - stunning stuff) and there is plenty more. Even after 40 years of collecting I only have recordings of six of his original works. Does anyone know of an album of his original music?
Sorry to go off topic.
