Melodies that transcend time and boundaries, they have the power to transport us to different worlds. From Edward Lear's whimsical tales of the Owl & Pussycat sailing away on a beautiful pea-green boat, to the enchanting tunes sung by the Jubilee Singers of Fisk University during a pivotal era in American history. Even amidst the challenges of C19, music remained a source of solace and unity. In 1898, Cecil Aldin captured the joyous anticipation of Christmas with his painting 'Hills. Christmas Is Coming. ' The Wassailing Apple Trees echoed harmonies through ancient orchards, celebrating nature's abundance and fertility. An angelic figure adorned with butterfly wings strummed their harp, creating celestial melodies that touched our souls. Sir Edward Elgar composed symphonies that stirred emotions deep within us; his music resonating through generations. Meanwhile, Arthur Roberts and Florrie Forde graced music halls with their charismatic performances, captivating audiences with laughter and song. From Lear's imaginative Quangle-Wangles to Jumblies dancing in nonsense rhythms, they have always embraced creativity beyond conventions. And let us not forget James Doughty - England's oldest clown - whose playful tunes brought smiles to faces young and old alike and can more than just words set to melody; they are vessels carrying stories untold and emotions unfelt until they reach our ears. They remind us of our shared humanity as we join together in harmony.
