Sophia Giustani Dussek's opus 2 consists of two books of three sonatas each for the harp. The Sonata in c-minor appears in the first book published by Pleyel in Paris in 1796. In this edition the composer's first name was not mentioned so the sonatas were falsely ascribed to Johann Ludwig Dussek who was quite well known in Paris at this time (cf. RISM D 4605). In the Thematic index of the works of J.L. Dussek by Howard Craw opus 2 is given as a set of 4 violin sonatas. An edition of the harp sonatas published by Corri Dussek & Co. in London and Edinburgh is ascribed to Sophia Dussek (cf. RISM D 4649).The new edition of the sonata published by Schott has been correctedaccording to this failure.The edition is part of the ABRSM syllabus and Trinity syllabus 2007 (grade 7)

Four years later he enlisted as oboist to the Band of HM Coldstream Guards which opened many doors including performances of his compositions and arrangements in many National venues on discand broadcast by the BBC on Radios 2 & 3.

His Flights Of Fancy and Blistering Along! appear on ABRSM and Trinity College Harp examination syllabuses while the Spartan Press publication Saxofun is on Suffolk's own exam syllabus.
