 | | Anna Amalia, Princess of Prussia When Anna Amalia, Princess of Prussia, was growing up in the court of her music-hating father, the soldier-king Frederick William I, she received little musical instruction in her childhood, and formal study was possible only after her father died. |
 | | Anna Amalia was an ardent collector of the old music she loved, and she preserved over 600 volumes of musical treasures by J. Bach, Palestrina, Handel, Telemann, and other composers of the past, as well as works by a few moderns like C. Bach-a significant contribution to European culture. |
 | | Anna Amalia, Duchess of Saxe-Weimar In contrast to the Princess of Prussia, with her conservative tastes, the Duchess of Saxe-Weimar, also named Anna Amalia (1739-1807), was dedicated to fostering new developments in both literature and music. |
