Dussek

Yesterday I was chatting with a harpist, a friend of mine.
She told me that, following the most recent studies, the Dussek "sonatine" were instead composed by his wife, of which I forgot the name.
They were publlished with Dussek as autor because, as you can guess, it was odd to publish compositions of a woman.

You can find it here: (http://imslp.org/wiki/6_Harp_Sonatas_(Dussek%2C_Jan_Ladislav)
"These sonatas have long been attributed to J.L. Dussek, though Grove states they were written by his wife Sophia."
