A Companion To The Reticule, arranged for the Piano Forte, is a collection of musical pieces likely intended for personal enjoyment and performance. Published around 1840, this volume offers a glimpse into the musical tastes and practices of the time. The title suggests its portability and convenience, fitting easily into a reticule (a small handbag popular in the 19th century). This edition bears the marks of previous owners, including Dorothea Ruggles-Brise and John Glen, adding to its historical significance. This compilation serves as a valuable resource for understanding the repertoire favored by amateur musicians and provides insight into the cultural landscape of 19th-century musical life.
