Ambox notice.pngAccording to Grove Music, this is spurious, and possibly composed by violinist Samuel Dushkin (1891-1976), based on Weber's Romanze from Violin Sonata Op.10, No.1.

Misc. Notes This piece was "discovered" by Samuel Dushkin. The early-20th century harmonies are nothing like what Maria Theresa von Paradis would have used, had she written for violin (and this well for violin), so I have added Dushkin's name as a possible composer.
