EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative music sheet cover, titled 'Lingering,' transports us back to the enchanting world of the Palais de Danse in London during the roaring 1920s. The image captures a romantic moment as a couple, lost in their dance, gracefully move in the foreground. The woman dons a vibrant red dress that contrasts beautifully with the man's harlequin costume. In the background, the Palais de Danse comes alive with a lively fancy dress ball, filled with laughter, music, and the excitement of social entertainment. The music for 'Lingering' was composed by T.W. Thurban, while the lyrics were penned by John P. Harrington. The sheet music, published in 1921, showcases the intricate details of the era's dance craze, with the title and composer's names elegantly embellished at the top. The cover artistry skillfully conveys the essence of the music, inviting listeners to imagine the lively scene unfolding before them. The Palais de Danse was a popular venue for such events, offering a unique and memorable experience for those seeking an escape from the mundane. The masquerade-like atmosphere, with its fancy dress code and the anonymity it offered, added to the allure of the evening. As the crowd gathers in the background, the energy and excitement of the moment are palpable. This music sheet cover serves as a window into the past, allowing us to relive the charm and enchantment of the 1920s, where every night was an opportunity to let go of the daily grind and indulge in the lingering magic of music and dance.
