More songs from EMMA musical
Brontëana wrote to tell us that Paul Gordon has posted two more songs from his EMMA musical to his Web site. They are called “Humiliation” and “Emma.” He described them as follows on the Jane Eyre forum, which doesn’t seem to be working at the moment:
“Humiliation”, sung by Kate Riender as Harriet - when she is snubbed by Mr. Elton at the ball.
“Emma” - unfortunately sung by me. This is the moment right afterwards - Knightly confesses his love for Emma - after she’s already left the room.

And I have gone ahead to suggest to him that the waltz idea might be problematic. *salutes* Just doing my bit.

Thanks–I was on my way over last night to do so but couldn’t get to the forum. I’m not 100% sure on the dates but I’m pretty sure that in 1815 (when Emma was published, not sure when he is setting it) it would be highly unlikely that there would be waltzing at a dance in rural Surrey. I don’t know if they even would have been waltzing in London then…maybe at some very “fast” parties but not at Almack’s yet, I don’t think.

I just saw “Emma” and I absolutely loved it! The music is outstanding!
