The young pianist Emma von Staudach performed a number of concerts in Vienna from December 1850 to summer 1852, to favourable reviews, before in autumn 1852 embarking on a European tour. This included a performance of the Beethoven concerto at a Gewandhaus concert in Leipzig on 25 November 1852 which was praised by the Illustrirte Zeitung for its 'commendable energy [...] by no means lacking delicacy and suppleness'. She then performed in Weimar before Liszt, who wrote her letters of introduction to Pierre Erard in Paris and Joseph Joachim in Berlin. During a second European tour in 1856 she is known to have performed the op.37 concerto in a New Philharmonic Society concert at the Hanover Square Rooms on 3 June. Her musical career ended with her marriage in 1859, and she died only three years later, of lung disease.
