[3] While he was a student at Uppsala University, Aulin's father developed an understanding and appreciation of chamber music, eventually becoming a keen amateur violinist, eventually leading to a position in the Mazer String Quartet Society, playing viola and violin.

[3] Aulin eventually came to the notice of Albert Rubenson, the then current director of the Royal Swedish Academy of Music.

[3] Aulin was also tutored at the Royal College of Music, Stockholm by Herman Behrens and Ludvig Norman.

[3] Besides many lieder and pieces for solo piano, her compositions included two string quartets (in F major and in E minor) and organ music.

At the age of 43, Aulin decided to move from the capital, where she grew up, to Örebro, a city some 125 miles to the west.

[4] There Aulin began working as a teacher, organist, pianist and arranging concerts although she ceased composing.

The American Scholar posits that she possibly became tired of the constant challenges she faced regarding the musical culture in Stockholm, particularly since Aulin was female, and also that she had certain difficulties with her mother.

[1] Other reasons suggested by The Swedish Art Music Society include the fact that the Aulin Quartet gradually ceased to perform as well as the early death of the composer Ludvig Norman along with other members of her support structure.

[4] In addition to piano pieces and songs, Aulin composed two string quartets (F major and E minor), organ music, orchestral and choral works.

[1] The prominence of single movement works is puzzling as Aulin was an accomplished pianist and was more than capable of playing longer compositions.
