About Juanita
"Juanita" is a love song variously subtitled "A Spanish Ballad", "A Song of Spain", and others. "Juanita" was number two of a six-song collection entitled Songs of Affection published December 1853 by Chappell & Co. and composed by noted Victorian society figure and social reformer Caroline Norton. "Juanita" was the first ballad by a woman composer to achieve massive sales, and its original setting has been seen to be subtly subversive of gender roles, a topic of some significance to Mrs. Norton.
