Oh good! Thank you. Was just looking at a score of the A major a week ago or so (uploaded awhile ago to IMSLP.) I think there's a few other sonatas but they may be later works.
Hrm, plus 7 compositions on Goethe's Faust. Interesting.
Still, about contemporary with these works is also a fantasy - in F-sharp minor I think, will have to check. has probably been recorded a few times already. If not, even if so, that would be good to include in a volume 2, maybe... well... cart, horse... (and me not even the greatest Wagner fan who ever was, and then, I guess, mostly for Parsifal. Still, this is intriguing. Thanks again for pointing this out.)

(Double-checking- yes. Fantasia in F-sharp minor, WWV 22, 1831, pub.1905. The two early sonatas are

-- yep, indeed, WWV 21/Op.1, 1831, published 1862?, in B-flat; WWV 26, 1831, published 1960, in A.)
