<title>Looking for a story where Elizabeth becomes an excellent pianist</title>
<description>Hello everyone!
I&#039;m looking for a Regency story where Elizabeth becomes a proficient pianist. This happens because of altered circumstances, but I don&#039;t remember of which kind exactly, whether negative or positive. Mostly, it was because she had more time to practice (something she admitted herself)
So, as I remember:
- First meetings happen as canon
- I think Hunsford and the elopement happen, too
There are also missed meetings, probably at Pemberley and after. In short, Darcy meets her again after some time (or quite a lot of time?) and marvels at her musical skills, to which she admits she had more time to practice.
I know it&#039;s very little, but does it sound familiar?</description><link>https://dwiggie.com/phorum/read.php?4,131312,131312#msg-131312</link><lastBuildDate>Fri, 17 Apr 2026 03:35:08 +0100</lastBuildDate>

<title>This might be it!</title><link>https://dwiggie.com/phorum/read.php?4,131312,131320#msg-131320</link><description><![CDATA[I'll have to read it to make sure, though.<br /><br />Does it have Elizabeth becoming a governess or something similar? This might be the change in circumstances that I remember.<br /><br />Well, even if it ends up not being the story I was looking for, thank you for bringing it to my attention! It does look worth reading :)]]></description>
