- Louise Farrenc, compositrice du XIXe siècle : musique au féminin (Cathérine Legras, pub. by Paris : L'Harmattan, ©2003. Can be Google-previewed. p.82 contains a partial list of works for piano, with composition or publication dates??- this is unclear! Her date for Op.9 and 11 do match the publication dates found in Bibliographie de la France, so perhaps the latter rather than the former. Also contains information on composition dates within the body of the text.)
