Three quarters of the titles in the volume are variations, of which five were composed from various sources by Henri Herz. The collection includes a variety of publishers and locations in Europe and the United States. Where dates can be determined, they range from 1821 through the 1840s.

A majority of works were published in Mayence (present-day Mainz), and some in Anvers (better known as Antwerp), Paris, Bonn, and New York. B. Schott or Fils de B.
