This paper elucidates the music education of women on the territory of Slovakia in the late of the 18th and early the 19th centuries, in the context of the development of piano art. The musical activity of women is traced, and the measure of their interest in piano art is estimated, using period testimonies and reflections on women’s artistic activities in writings of the time. A number of aspects of the professional activity of women are outlined, with a primary focus on teaching piano playing. The paper presents manuscripts of music textbooks from the first decades of the 19th century, whose authorship, ownership, or possible elaboration we ascribe to women.
