Wake Chawton with a Sweet Tune, Jane!


Again, browsing Strasbaugh’s ‘The List Lover’s Guide to Jane Austen’ I came by a song Arne’s 'Overture to Artaxerxes'.

Jane practiced piano in the mornings - I can’t but wonder if she woke Chawton Cottage with this music which sounds eclectic for it’s time: Sorry, Jane, I would’ve shouted down the stairs for you to play something sweeter! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Chg_nMkjiU

Handel'sAsk if yon Damask Rose be Sweet’, might be just my morning cup of tea.
 Here’s my preferred Alarm Song, with Lyrics and Orchestra, on a channel named Austen Music.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bXxoP7bgIrA&list=PLTbMXzrF3-J5lroJKA8LcRv3pIKNy5WoC
