Music by Writers (4): Lewis Carroll

August 31st, 2026 · No Comments

Lewis Carroll wrote two pieces of music that I know of. One was printed in his 1889 book Sylvie and Bruno; it was sung by Bruno in the 15th chapter.

The other was a medley of tunes called “Miss Jones,” for which Carroll provided new words. Here’s the first page, as notated by his sister Margaret (please click to enlarge).
