Les Cloches de Corneville
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a beloved operetta composed by Clairville and Charles Gabet, originally produced in France in the late 19th century. This photograph is a promotional print for the Halifax Amateur Operatic Society's 1909 production of the show at the Victoria Hall. The reverse of the flyer, kindly granted permission by J. Williams Ltd, invites the public to attend the performance on 8th February 1909. The operatic society's commitment to charitable giving is highlighted in the caption, as they aim to raise one hundred guineas for local charities through the production. The promise of "gorgeous costumes," "pretty scenery," and a "band and chorus of over 80" members would have enticed potential audience members to secure their tickets. The photograph itself showcases a lively scene from the operetta, with actors in elaborate costumes and animated expressions. The rich details of the set design and the intricate props add to the overall allure of the production. This photograph offers a glimpse into the vibrant theatrical scene of Halifax during the early 1900s. Les Cloches de Corneville, with its timeless story and captivating music, continues to be a cherished piece of operetta history. The Halifax Amateur Operatic Society's dedication to bringing this production to life, while supporting local charities, reflects the community spirit and artistic passion of the era.
