Beloved Home Sheet Music

Summary

Beloved Home is an original piece of music composed by accomplished artist, Virginia Dousman, daughter of Louis Dousman and Nina Sturis. The song was written in honor of the Villa Louis, which was built in 1871 by the Dousmans and today stands as one of the most authentically furnished Victorian houses in America.

This song and others composed by Virginia would have likely been played on the family's Steinway grand piano and used in family and social gatherings as well as the education of the Dousman children. The bulk of her music was published between 1825 and 1944, and it constitutes a sample of the musical tastes of the times.

We invite you to play this beautiful song written in honor of the Villa Louis and experience the splendor of the Dousman's Beloved Home.
