EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph print, titled "National Concerts at Her Majesty's Theatre - the Berlin Choir, 1850," by Smyth, offers a glimpse into the rich cultural history of 19th-century music and theatre. The image showcases the Berlin Choir in full regalia, with their focused expressions and raised batons, ready to deliver an a cappella performance. The choir, consisting of seventy voices, was renowned for its 'pure and excellent quality of voices,' 'classical excellence of style,' and 'marvellous precision' in their performances. The choir was a significant institution in Germany, sustained solely by the King of Prussia. Boys who were admitted into the choir received an education in composition or were allowed to practice an instrument, providing a fallback option if their voices were lost. The choir's repertoire consisted solely of a cappella music, meaning they sang without any instrumental accompaniment. The photograph print was published in the Illustrated London News in 1850, providing a visual representation of the electrifying performances that captivated audiences. The choirmaster, Augustus Neithardt, stands at the front, conducting the choir with precision and control. The image, with its engraved detail, transports us back to a time when the theatre was a primary source of entertainment and artistic expression. This photograph print is a testament to the enduring power of music and the arts, and the dedication of those who pursued them in the 19th century. It is a reminder of the important role that choirs played in shaping the cultural landscape of Europe and beyond.
