As usual, partial, incomplete list, in progress.

Sources

  • Hofmeisters Monatsberichte (used with caution. Works by Kaspar Kummer appear as G. Kummer, Gasp. Kummer, Casp. Kummer, etc. - but other composers with the name Kummer were published at the same time, not only Friedrich Kummer but also a "G.H. Kummer". Kaspar Kummer’s initials were J.K. Kummer so this was not the same composer (unless he had more than two initials and just used a different selection- unlikely?) so indeed as with some other composers etc. - caveat.
  • Dutch Wikipedia worklist. At a guess, G.H. Kummer may have been Gotthelf Heinrich Kummer (1774–1857), a bassoonist and composer.

Dates, publishers and plate (numbers) where available are usually the earliest ones known (to me or the person who entered that record?...)- or if better information is available, of course, e.g. evidence for date of composition, date and perhaps some brief marker as to the source of evidence, explained in more detail elsewhere here (E.g. under "Sources".) Generally, Hofmeister or perhaps Pazdirek (which has been scanned in online- haven't checked whether it lists works by Terschak but will be doing so soon), or other sources as available - for dates; for plates, library catalogs, with the caveat as usual that it is sometimes difficult to be sure that the plate number information locked down by the library catalog listing (which is often uncertain as to date) is for the same edition as the HMB entry which is in turn certain as to date (for which the library catalog is usually equally uncertain- the more we can be certain about both and publisher too, we can fill in more entries in the useful publisher plate tables.)
