Hi!

I've been tryng to remember the title of this book, but it's beyond me, apparently.

It's a historical romance, Regency or Victorian. The heroine is a very telented cellist and her father, too. They often play together in the evenings, it's their way to communicate. There is also a recurring occurrence: when she is alone, the heroine plays while wearing a dress/robe with a slit to better accomodate her cello. In addition, she often complains - in her head - that she can't play correctly when she is in public, because it's inappropriate for a young lady of marriageable age to sit with her legs spread and a cello between them, so she has to play side-ways.

I also remember that the hero goes to her room (or the balcony of her room) and she plays for him.

Unfortunately, that is all. I hope that this unusual detail of the heroine being a cellist will ring some bells!

Is it possible that this is Once Upon A Tower by Eloisa James? It's a riff on the Rapunzel story so there's a lot of going up and down to her balcony, and she does complain about sitting sideways to play.

You're right, that's it!

Thank you so much, Lyttle Bird :)
