Average Rating: Rating: - Must have study music My mother purchased this CD for me as a gift and I have used it as study music ever since. It provides the perfect background without distraction, yet somehow manages to lift the spirits when books, tests, and papers abound. Rating: - This CD is wonderful I've had this CD for over a year now and of all my many classical albums, tapes, MP3's and CDs it is, by far, my most played CD. I listen to it almost every evening as I fall asleep. The more you play this music, the more you'll love it. Don't let the title fool you, this is some heady stuff. It may turn you on to some lesser know composers (i.e. William Boyce) and I guarantee you won't be dissatisfied. If you love Baroque you will love this CD. Rating: - Anachronism! I have to admit that I haven't heard this CD, and I'm sure it is very pleasant listening. BUT Jane Austen died when Mendelssohn was 8 years old, and although he was precocious, he wasn't that precocious! Also the music Jane Austen played and heard most would have been piano music and, as another reviewer has mentioned, chamber music. The concerts she attended often included Italian songs, for example. In her music collection there was nothing by Beethoven or even Mozart. A really interesting JA music companion album would have made an effort to establish what music she would have heard - and without the easy availability of recordings we have, it wouldn't necessarily have been what we now regard as the great classics. Anybody interested in this topic should read "The Innocent Diversion: a study of music in the life and writings of Jane Austen" by Patrick Piggott, London, 1979.
