Originally published in 2003, Charles Edward Horn's Memoirs of His
Father and Himself is an annotated collection of the memoirs of
Charles Edward Horn. They include an account of Horn's father,
Charles Frederick Horn, who arrived penniless in London in 1782 and
rose to become music master to Queen Charlotte. Today he is most
remembered for his pioneering publications of J.S. Bach's music in
England. Charles Edward Horn's memoir covers his activities in
England and Ireland and provide numerous details of English musical
life in the Georgian era not previously known to scholars. They are
supplemented in this book by transcripts of four other
autobiographical accounts of the Horns, a summary of their extant
correspondence and a chronology of their activities.
