Anna Bon
Anna Bon (ca.1739-?) was an Italian composer and performer. Her parents were both involved in music and traveled internationally; her father was the Bolognese artist Girolamo Bon, a librettist and scenographer, and her mother was the singer Rosa Ruvinetti Bon. Anna was born in Russia. On March 8, 1743, at the age of four, she was admitted to the Ospedale della Pietà in Venice as a student; that she had a surname indicates that she was not a foundling as were most of the Pièta wards, but a tuition-paying pupil (figlia de spesi). She studied with the maestra di viola, Candida della Pièta (who herself had been admitted into the coro in 1707).
By 1756, Anna rejoined her parents in Bayreuth where they were in the service of Margrave Friedrich of Brandenburg Kulmbach; she held the new post of 'chamber music virtuosa' at the court, and dedicated her six op. 1 flute sonatas, published in Nürnberg in 1756, to Friedrich. From the frontispiece we learn that she composed them at the age of sixteen.

One By One
by: Kitty WellsOne by one, we've broke each vow we made
It was you who lied, it was me who paid
As sure as there's a Heaven beyond the sun
We'll pay for our lies one by one
My plans and hopes have tumbled down
My castle of dreams plunged to the ground
How can you face me after what you've done?
You've shattered my dreams one by one
One by one, we've broke each vow we made
It was you who lied, it was me who paid
As sure as there's a Heaven beyond the sun
We'll pay for our lies one by one
How can you go to sleep at night?
Don't old memories make you long for daylight?
You'll pay the price after having your fun
You'll regret each mistake one by one
The love I treasured, you sold for gold
For worldly goods, you left me cold
You're happy now but the time will come
You're false loves will leave you one by one
One by one, you've broke each vow we made
It was you who lied, it was me who paid
As sure as there's a Heaven beyond the sun
