Mathilde von Kralik was an Austrian composer with an extensive list of art songs in a very Romantic style. Shout-outs to tenor Donald George for sending us her name and some ideas to get started (you can listen to his recording of Kralik Lieder with pianist Lucy Mauro on Spotify) and to Ars Augusta, a non-profit society with the mission to promote "forgotten musical heritage especially Lied or Baroque operas", who sent us her Lied der Sappho (please contact them for purchase information of the score).

Her Liederbuch Maia (a collection of 54 songs in 3 volumes) is available through Theodore Front Musical Literature. Silbernebel is available on IMSLP through Creative Commons.
