The Belle Époque is the term often given to a period dated between 1880 and the outbreak of World War I in 1914, characterised by optimism, peace, economic prosperity, and technological, scientific, and cultural innovations. In this era the arts markedly flourished, with numerous masterpieces of literature, music, theatre, and visual art gaining extensive recognition. The “Excelsior Ball“ by Luigi Marenco is one such masterpiece. Premiered at the Teatro alla Scala di Milano in 1881, it became extremely popular among the rising bourgeoisie. This is the only existing recording of the Ball, courtesy of Edi-Pan ., Rome.
