| Description : |
Lady Charlotte Finch was governess to the children of King George III. Her book The gamut provided the elements of theory to support the practical accomplishments of the girls and young women of the gentry, of whom some musical proficiency was expected as part of their education. The book remained popular for some time and appeared in a number of editions, not all of which acknowledged the author. |
