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\n\nProduct Description\n\nFor everyone who has ever read a Jane Austen novel or seen a Jane Austen movie, this disc is a must. It captures the atmosphere of Austen's world with classical works from the period she lived in.
