- Description
Shows what is probably the last page of the 'Spring frolic' programme, with a cleaner standing holding a broom amidst a pile of debris, which includes musical notes, broken instruments, bottles and the conductor lying in the rubbish bin. At bottom right is a lion dressed as a conductor, with a music stand bearing a sign saying 'The end'.
The concert and drawings for the accompanying programme are based on the Hoffnung Music Festival Concerts. Gerard Hoffnung (1925-1959) was a cartoonist and gifted musician who in 1956 started the Hoffnung Music Festivals, an original brand of symphonic caricature that received international acclaim
