A prolific composer of the late Romantic period, she wrote more than 300 works, including pieces for solo piano, organ, chamber music, a mass, and orchestral works.
Here are a couple of chamber music works with their respective links to download the score.
The first is a trio for flute, violin and piano. Op. 59
The second chamber work is the Cello Sonata, Op. 67
Due to the difficulties encountered by women who wanted to compose, she began signing her works as Mel Bonis. Here are two piano pieces, also with a link to download the sheet music.
Phoebe, Op. 30
Pavane, and the score also includes a sarabande and a bourrée. Bonis also orchestrated these three pieces, and you can find the orchestration of the bourrée at this same link. I couldn't find anyone who played it :(
