If the people at Nimbus are smart, they'll do a whole collection of discs on this theme. The literary-musical connection is, when done tastefully, as it is here, irresistible. As the intelligent and interesting notes maintain, "London at the time of Jane Austen was one of the most exciting centers in all of Europe for music," and this was an era of great fertility of composers in general. Lucky Jane! Imagine publishing your second novel the same year that Beethoven's Seventh Symphony receives its premiere. Or offering your fourth novel to the public near the time of the first performance of Schubert's Fifth Symphony. The program highlights popular music from Austen's time by Mendelssohn, Haydn, Fasch, J.C. Bach, Boyce, Schubert and others. I find the exclusion of chamber music a little odd here, though, since chamber music was the rage among the sort of gentlemen and women of the country about whom Austen wrote so well. --Gwendolyn Freed

This CD features classical piano music accurately reflecting the musical milieu of Jane Austen's period and social sphere. This music may be heard as emanating from the elegant drawing rooms graced by many of Austen's immortal and pianistic heroines. All musical selections are drawn from Austen's personal library, social sphere, or time period.
The CD contains 73 minutes of music by well-known and lesser-known composers, including four complete sonatas, and premiere recordings of works by Cramer, Clementi, and Schobert. Includes a 16-page booklet featuring gorgeous color photography, a bibliography, and in-depth program notes discussing Jane Austen's pianistic background, the role music performance fulfills in Austen's plot/character development and social satire, historic/stylistic sketches of each piece, and the artist's personal speculations as to who might have played what, where, and under what circumstances.
