Music
#1902
Date:
c.1917
Source: Joe Plaskett, donor
Photographer: Vincent C. Russell
Information:
Westminster Operatic Club Concert. In the orchestra pit are members
of the New Westminster Symphony Orchestra. Some of these musicians
also appear in photograph no.153 - Music, (1918), and photograph
no.154 - Music, (1916 - also taken by Russell). "Merry England"
was the operetta performed in 1917. The dutch-looking headdress
of the women is most likely an attempt to make a close fitting
English maiden's bonnet. Note the Beefeaters, king and queen figures,
and the fool in the foreground. Also not the English stage set,
the same trees at the side of the stage are also in photograph
no.153 - Music.
