Notes:
Princess Amalia Luisa Dorothea Leontina von Fürstenberg was a German aristocrat, composer, and member of the princely House of Fürstenberg, born in Lány u Rakovníka (present-day Czech Republic). Princess Amalia composed light classical and instrumental pieces during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Because music was primarily a private pursuit for high-born noblewomen of her era, her works were mostly kept in aristocratic archives rather than heavily commercialized. Her most notable surviving piece is the Irma-Polka (composed for the piano in E-flat major).
