Cesare Pugni - Her Majesty's Theatre

Her Majesty's Theatre

In the fall of 1843, Pugni left for London, and soon enjoyed a period of great renewed success. These were very prolific years for the composer: between the theatre's 1843 and 1850 seasons, Pugni produced an impressive series of scores for three of the greatest choreographers at that time: Jules Perrot, Arthur Saint-Léon and Paul Taglioni. Not long after arriving in London Pugni married his second wife, Marion (or Mary-Ann) Linton.

    The majesty and riches of the mind,
    But dwell in darkness; for your God is blind.
    George Chapman (1559?–1634)

    For the theatre one needs long arms; it is better to have them too long than too short. An artiste with short arms can never, never make a fine gesture.
