Hanon other than the obvious.

Did Hanon write anything other than The Virtuoso Pianist?

What a genius! I want to write something so marketable!!!!

The man must have some fantasias, paraphrasis, souvenirs, or at least some variations or sonatas, right?

He did, but they were nothing more than harmless trinkets. Decorations without much substance a la Hunten.

Out of curiosity, i did purchase a couple of scores from the British Library, but i won't be so stupid again.
