Ann Maria Thorne
Ann Maria Thorne, more widely known as Mrs. French ''('' Mestayer; 1813 Philadelphia – 20 June 1881 Cornwall-on-Hudson, New York)〔 was an early American concert singer and actress from Philadelphia. As "Mrs. French," she was among the most famous singers in America during the 1820s.
== Career ==
According to an 1896 publication, ''Annals of Music in Philadelphia and History of the Musical Fund Society,'' another singer, Mrs. Burke, had been the most famous American singer until she was outrivaled by Mrs. French.〔 Mrs. French had studied music with Benjamin Carr, an early American composer, music publisher, and music teacher from Philadelphia. She also studied with a Henri-Noel Gilles (1778–1834), a French-born and musically educated guitarist, oboist, and composer of Philadelphia.〔 She first appeared as a child in Philadelphia at the Chestnut Street Theatre.
Several early nineteenth century American composers and publishers dedicated works to her. Moreover, her performance of works was used to advertise sheet music. For example, the cover pages of several compositions by James P. Aykroyd — published by George E. Blake — advertise that Mrs. French as a singer of the works.
