Recently on IMSLP I ran across a manuscript of a piano sonata in F minor by German composer Sophia Maria Westenholz (1759–1838). As I studied the manuscript, I felt a desire to help more people discover her wonderful music, and so I have created and typeset a new edition and published it on ISMLP under a 2021 Creative Commons license. I look forward to hearing from pianists who will take advantage of this newly-available edition and perform this sonata. And stay tuned for more about this remarkable composer!
