Any number of JS Bach works (last fugue from KdF, couple o' Passions,
etc.,)
200 more Baryton sonatas by Haydn (just kidding)
(I heard rumors years ago that Arianna was found, but nothing since so

p.s. What about the works that were never written by composers that

get to write. I was wondering the other day what Mozart's music of
1820 might have sounded like.
