Description
New York: Willis Woodward & Co, 1897. Folio sheet music, complete. Illustrated color lithograph title page by Robert Teller. Covers detached, contents complete, good, with lithographed cover in particularly bright and attractive condition.. Sheet music issued at the height of the Klondike Gold Rush, capitalizing directly on the surge of public interest following the discoveries in the Yukon in 1896–1897. The lithographed title page, signed in style by Robert Teller, shows a dramatic scene of prospectors working a gold deposit in the mountains, with two miners in the foreground bent over a pile of freshly uncovered gold, tools in hand. Theodore August Metz was a German-born musician trained on violin in Hanover who emigrated to the United States and worked various trades before establishing himself as a bandleader and composer in Chicago’s late 19th-century popular music scene. He achieved national prominence with “There’ll Be a Hot Time in the Old Town Tonight” (1896–97), a widely performed marching tune that became especially popular during the Spanish-American War and in minstrel and touring band repertories.
