The Fugue is available from http://www.crescendomusicpublications.com.au/ in a revised and corrected edition, as part of their complete Widor piano music series.

cheers,

Many thanks for the info. The link you gave needed a little tweaking--I've fixed it here:

We have had some Grovlez pieces on here in the past.
I am posting another work by him.

Theodore Lack seems to be nearly forgotten these day.
Born in 1846, he died in 1921. Spent nearly all of his adult life as assistant professor of piano at the Paris Conservatoire
where he had studied piano with Marmontel. I am posting a Scherzetto Opus 29 by him.

Thank you for those two. I specially like Lack and have shared in the past a good number of his scores on PiPhi and then on IMSLP. Always very pleasant and effective for pianists with limited gifts of my ilk.

Here is an Emile Prudent setting of the Septet from Ernani. Sorry that the scan isn't better, but the original isn't that great.
Prudent Emile op.31 Septuor d'Ernani (Caprice pour piano).pdf
BTW, at the top of pge 7 of the score (page 8 in the pdf) the nearly illegible tempo marking appears (as best I can tell) to be sostenuto e largo. Only the larg is still present, but I can't think of anything else that would fit.

Actually, "sostenuto" is fairly legible. Thanks for the score.

Julian Raoul Besset has now written a second piano sonata, 13 years after his first.
For anyone who's interested, it's available on IMSLP.
