Category:Compositions with a spurious or doubtful attribution

Compositions with a spurious or doubtful attribution are those compositions that have been attributed to one composer, while they were (probably) composed by another.

References to reliable sources describing the doubt and/or the alternative attribution(s) are needed in the article before an article can be included in this category.

Not to be included in this category:
 * Arrangement of a work by another composer, often only mentioned by the name of the arranger, but where there never was a secret about the original composer (e.g. Gounod's Ave Maria); same when the arranger is usually not mentioned (e.g. Seiffert's version of Pachelbel's Canon)
 * Compositions that never have known a serious attribution to a single composer: such compositions should rather only be in Category:Anonymous musical compositions
