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.

Yes, these are the not-so-well-known lost treasures posthumously published
as The Virtuoso Pianist Vol. II - The Lost Hanons

He actually wrote a lovely little collection of pieces for handbells.
