EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the Viennese Band, led by Musical Director J. Delikat, performing at the Alhambra Theatre in London on 12 April 1903. The Alhambra, known for its grand entertainment, was a popular venue for music lovers in the early 1900s. The band, dressed in their smart red uniforms, showcases a diverse range of musicians, including those playing stringed instruments such as the double bass and cello, as well as brass instruments like the trumpet and trombone. Percussionists are also present, skillfully manning the drums and other percussion instruments. The programme for this particular performance featured an eclectic mix of music from renowned composers such as Wagner, Elgar, German, Sarasate, Liszt, and Sousa. The inclusion of these esteemed composers speaks to the high caliber of music presented at the Alhambra during this era. The photograph transports us back to the Edwardian period, where the excitement of live music performances was a cherished pastime. The Austrian band, with its polished red uniforms and impressive instrumentation, would have drawn large crowds to the bandstand at the Alhambra Theatre in Margate, Kent. This photograph is a testament to the enduring power of music to bring people together and create memorable experiences.
