On a Day: Music for Violin & Continuo (commonly referred to as: On a Day...) is the debut instrumental album by Emilie Autumn, released in 1997. The album was recorded the same year, when Autumn was seventeen years old.[1] Its title refers to both the Shakespeare song and the fact that the album took only a day to record.[2] It consists of her performing works for the baroque violin accompanied by friends on the cello, harpsichord, and lute.

Release and promotion

On a Day... was originally released by Emilie Autumn on her own record label, Traitor Records.[3] Autumn did not initially intend to release the album, considering it "more of a demo despite its length", and released it after fans who enjoyed her "rock performances starting asking for a classical album so that they could hear more of the violin".[2]

The album was re-released digitally by Trisol Music Group in 2005.

The album was again re-released as "Laced" on Emilie's second instrumental album Laced / Unlaced in 2007.
