Excerpt from A Glance at the Passion-Play The following realistic remarks may be interesting to some who have had a trifle too much of gush and fancy; and to all who would see Oberammergau with the varnish off. I have done my utmost to give a fair judgment and to praise where praise is due. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Art in the Mountains: The Story of the Passion Play Since the following description of the Passion Play was written (part of which has already appeared in the Graphic newspaper), we learn that, in consequence of the interruption to these performances, caused by the war, they will be repeated for a short time, next summer. Joseph Mair and the principal performers did not, as was generally supposed, take any active part in the war. They are all, we are glad to hear, 'safe and sound' at the time we write; so that in all probability, this wonderful dramatic company will not be broken up. Information for future visitors to Oberammergau will be found in an Appendix to this volume; also in 'The Ammergau Passion Play' (reprinted from the Times), by the Rev. M. MacColl.

Excerpt from Impressions of the Ammergau Passion-Play The Resurrection. Appearances of Christ. Final scene of glory. The Chorus, twenty in number, step out half from each side of the broad stage in front of the Theatre proper. Theyadvance slowly till the two leaders meet; then they turn round and face the audience in a long line. They are all in the same long robes of various colours, reaching down to their feet. The Head or Foreman, a fine man with a black beard, addresses the audience, explanatory of what is to follow then they all sing a melodious chant and at last draw back into two semi-circles, one on each Side of the Theatre and as the curtain rises for the Tableaux, one of their number sings an air exhibiting the motif, as the curtain falls, they all again advance to the front, catching up the air and chanting the appropriate warnings and exhortations this over, they all file out, and the real scene begins. This is generally acted inside the covered Theatre, but in the crowded scenes, the greater part of the stage is taken up. The Impression produced by the Chorus is entirely the effect of its dignity. Every one of its movements is slow and deliberate; each member of it does exactly the same as the others: all is calm and studied. There is but little excitement, and the variety of each scene only produces a measured change in the temper of the songs, the pathos of which rises and falls without any strong effort or violent emotion. The music is always pretty, with a light Mozartesque prettiness, sometimes it is fine but its general character is rather that of a long chant with a refrain which, with some slight variation, seems for ever recurring over and over again. I kept wondering how the Chorus knew where it had got to, the music seemed so alike all through. Then again the Chorus has only three motions of the hands, one calling attention, one for exhortation, one for warning. All the hands rise and fall together with wonderful evenness and regularity. A profane person would call it sea-sawing but there was such a calm and quiet solemnity about it that at last a dreamy interest of association, a hoary dignity began to cling round it. On the round of move ments went, continuous and unchanging, with a rhythmic cadence like the refrain of an Old ballad, until you look the same sort of half-attentive pleasure in it as in the ceaseless plashing of a fountain. There is a mesmeric influence, a downy power in repetition, which is apparently more strongly felt in primitive times than in our own. We are toorestless and scurried to appreciate this poetry Of conservatism, but it is evidently as natural as it is healthy. It was this power which the Chorus exercised. Everything it did was multiple or at least double. The Leader was not a centre to the others, he simply headed one half. The dresses appeared various enough, but on examining you found that the succession of colours was the same in each semi-chorus. The very sex of the performers was concealed. This was all m thorough harmony with the monotonous swaying of the hands, with the Sing-song swing of the Chant, and all served to keep up to the full the characteristic notion of the Chorus as a musical accompaniment, that which marks the time of the song, as it were, reflecting and repeating and answering in its Chords the modulations of the main melody.

Not illustrated. 1881 edition. Excerpt: ... TO THE THEATRE. Sunday had been so full that many could not see the piece, and the consequence was a Monday Nachspiel, or overflow meeting. On the eventful day (August 23) the gun fired for rag-mass at 5 A.M., and was followed by sundry others. Shortly after seven, when the village band had made the normal promenade, streets and mudroads were puddled and paddled by boots and bottines; the thoroughfares reminded me only of the old Sussex highways, whose morasses were useful by keeping off footpads. The theatre, which had opened at 6.30, presently began to fill, and work began with the last gun exactly at 8 A.m. It would be supererogatory to give detailed descriptions of the tableaux and actions, which have appeared in a host of guide-books; I shall therefore offer only a synopsis, and confine myself to remarking what most needs remark--in fact, what most strikes the traveller. prologue.
