PLOCK A.: Queen of the Woods Waltz.
Melbourne. W. H. Glen . Hand dated 1878 . .With a colour lithograph front cover of Diana the huntress and behind her a stag, by Charles Troedel of Melbourne. The limitations of the history of Australian music is exemplified by the fact that little information on the composer, publisher or lithographer can be offered, although Shirley Andrews in her book Take Your Partners(1979)wrote 'German bands were particularly popular late last century and one led by Herr Plock was often mentioned in reports of fashionable dances in Melbourne then. The writer, Marshall Hall in 2001 mentions 'Herr Plock, a popular orchestra leader in the 1880s and 1890s '. A. Plock used the admired Melodies Breathe Not of Parting, To the Woods etc and the piece was performed by Plock's Band . Folio With music . Condition VG .
