Background: America in Mark Twain’s time was, as ever, a place of paradoxes. Scathing social and political commentary and highly romantic music coexisted then as now, in a country which had already begun inventing and reinventing itself with startling regularity. 19th-century parlor music showed America in sentimental light.

Jacqueline Schwab’s solo improvisations have been featured on nine of Ken Burns’ films, including the Grammy award-winning The Civil War.
