Jane Austen Month continues with music!
Music played a very important role in Regency social circles. If a person knew how to play music well enough on an instrument suitable for the parlor or for a drawing room, that person would quite often be welcome at most nearby social events.
Below is one illustration of music being sung by friends at the "pianoforte," the very favorite instrument of the Regency era.
Happy Regency Era Creativity!
