Far, Far, Upon the Sea
EDITORS COMMENTS
: A Musical Journey Across the Atlantic Ocean in the 1840s This music sheet cover, titled "Far, Far, Upon the Sea," showcases a poignant moment from the Victorian era, as a large sailing ship embarks on a transatlantic voyage from the Old World to the New. The song was penned by the popular English baritone singer, composer, and pianist, Henry Russell (1812-1900), with lyrics by Charles Mackay. The entertainment from which this song originated was titled "Far West, or the Emigrants' Progress from the Old World to the New," dedicated to the Reverend Thomas Hardy. As the sailing ship cuts through the vast expanse of the Atlantic Ocean, the emigrants onboard look forward to a new life in America. The image on this music sheet cover, published in 1845, captures the essence of the emigration experience during the 1840s. Henry Russell, a prolific figure in the world of music during this period, composed and performed this song, which would have resonated deeply with those embarking on their journey to the New World. The lyrics, penned by Charles Mackay, evoke a sense of longing and anticipation, as the emigrants bid farewell to their homeland and set sail towards the unknown. The design of the music sheet cover, with its intricate details and elegant typography, reflects the historical significance of this period in both music and immigration history. This beautiful piece of early music history invites us to reflect on the courage and determination of those who made the journey across the Atlantic Ocean in search of a new beginning.
