Thread Name: Victorian Era Music?
Subject: RE: Victorian Era Music?
Try the links connection, on the main page, which will take you to a bunch. Scroll down to the Lester Levy Collection at Johns Hopkins Univ. If you browse the collection you should find some good ones. Sheet music of anything that is in public domain and/ or published before 1924, can be viewed and printed out.

Victorian Parlour Songs, mmmm, there's the Flowers that bloom in the Spring, Tra-la. Another great place to try would be the old 78's site here:

click here

It has brief samples of audio and they are categorised.

If I get a chance to tomorrow, I'll look through a couple of old books. I know I have some because mom used to sing them for her parents.
