A rare poster showing Tom Cat, the comic tenor who performed with 'La Strilla' (see last week's post) in Gilpurr and Sullivan's The Miawdo (excerpt on image 2)

(There was a subsequent human version which parodied this original with some success - see 'Miaowsicals & Oppawrettas Pirated by Humans', by Ernesto Flatpawski, (pub. Felix Books, 1928, 3rd ed.))

Latest discovery from the archives: a programme cover for that popular favourite 'The Miaowdo' by Gilpurr and Sullivan with portrait of leading caterwauler 'La Strilla', one of the first international felines to undertake the role in the 1890s, under the baton of Maestro Furrybelow.

La Strilla continued the season with performances of Pawsca, La Gattina del West, and her unrepeatable Lucia di Lammerpurr.

It was Debussy's birthday this week - plus, he was a cat-human, owned by Totor. And Totor.

Happy #Caturday !

"Cats Symphony," Moritz von Schwind, 1868.

Instead of musical notes, why not cats? von Schwind was an Austrian painter and draftsman who did this, a caricature of Wagern's music, as a gift for a friend who had become the director of a music school.

From the Staatliche Kunsthalle Karlsruhe, Karlsruhe, Germany
