EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from 1909 showcases a talented musical ensemble known as Mr Osbornes sextet, hailing from the charming village of Indian Queens in St Columb Major, Cornwall. Stepping back in time, this snapshot offers a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of Cornwall and its vibrant music scene over a century ago. The six musicians stand proudly with their instruments, exuding passion and dedication to their craft. Dressed impeccably in traditional Cornish attire, they embody the spirit of their beloved homeland. Each member holds an instrument unique to Cornwall's musical traditions - perhaps a fiddle or accordion - ready to create harmonies that would resonate through the hearts of listeners. The photograph captures not only the individual talents but also the unity and camaraderie among these musicians. Their shared love for music is evident as they pose together against a backdrop that hints at both rural simplicity and artistic aspirations. Preserved by the Royal Cornwall Museum, this image serves as a testament to how music has long been an integral part of Cornish culture. It reminds us of our roots and celebrates those who have dedicated themselves to preserving local traditions through melodies passed down generations. As we gaze upon this historical treasure, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand the magic created by Mr Osbornes sextet – an enchanting moment frozen forever within this remarkable photograph.
