Classical, Instrumental
In her lifetime, pianist Jane Mary Guest (1762-1846) dazzled as a virtuosa. The daughter of a tailor, she soon attracted musical attention in her native Bath and went on to study with J.C. Bach, eventually winning the support of the Royal Family.
This previously unrecorded set of keyboard sonatas with accompanimental violin, dedicated to Queen Charlotte, is given its first outing here by two of the most charismatic musical personalities in the American Early Music scene. Their performance, on period instruments, beautifully captures the grace, wit, and sparkle of this unjustly forgotten composer.
