EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite music sheet cover showcases the captivating charm of the Danseuses Viennoises, a renowned troupe of small girls from Vienna who enchanted audiences across Europe and the United States during the mid-19th century. The cover, featuring the title "Danseuses Viennoises. No.3. Pas des Moissonneurs" (Harvesters Dance or Harvest Fete), is accompanied by the composer's name, Max Maretzek (1821-1897). The Danseuses Viennoises were known for their graceful and intricate performances, which often incorporated elements of Austrian folk traditions. The border of the cover is adorned with intricate, decorative motifs, evoking the elegance and opulence of the Victorian era. The central image depicts a lively harvest scene, with girls in traditional Austrian costumes engaging in the Pas des Moissonneurs, a dance representing the harvesting of wheat and corn. The girls are surrounded by stooks, or piles of harvested grain, adding to the rustic charm of the image. This music sheet cover was likely used to promote a performance of the Danseuses Viennoises at Her Majesty's Theatre in London during the 1840s. The troupe, under the direction of Jullien, toured extensively throughout Europe and the United States, bringing the beauty and charm of Viennese dance to new audiences. The Danseuses Viennoises and their Harvest Fete dance became a beloved and enduring symbol of the grace and elegance of the Victorian era. This image, with its intricate border and charming depiction of the Danseuses Viennoises, offers a glimpse into the rich history of ballet and Austrian culture during the 19th century.
