Fiddle & I: A Victorian Echo of Mrs. Goodeve's Popular Waltz Step back in time with this image of a fiddler in a serene rural setting, showcasing his mastery of the stringed instrument in the performance of "Fiddle & I," a waltz inspired by Mrs. Goodeve's popular song. Dating back to circa 1891, this evocative photograph by Otto Roeder transports us to the heart of the Victorian era. The fiddler, with a thoughtful expression, is seated on a wooden stool in a picturesque country lane, surrounded by quaint cottages. The idyllic scene is further enhanced by the gentle waltz melody that seems to drift through the air, inviting couples to dance in the soft glow of the lanterns. The fiddle, with its intricate rosette and meticulously crafted strings, is the centerpiece of the image. The sheet music for "Fiddle & I" lies open on a nearby table, a testament to the musician's dedication and the enduring popularity of Mrs. Goodeve's song. This image offers a glimpse into a simpler time, where music brought people together and the simple joy of a waltz could be found in the most unexpected places. The fiddler's connection with his instrument and the music he creates is a poignant reminder of the power of art and tradition to transcend the passage of time.
