Burney made several large drawings of this sort, satirizing the manners and pastimes of contem-porary society. Here the subject is an evening meeting of a glee club; the numerous inscriptions scattered throughout the drawing are all titles of popular madrigals and "catches," or rounds.

This drawing, also known as “The Glee Club”, appears to be part of a coherent group along with “The Waltz”, “The Elegant Establishment for Young Ladies” (both Victoria & Albert Museum, London), and “Amateurs of Tye-Wig Music” (Paul Mellon Collection, ycba). All four pictures are of similar format and finish and are linked by their musical theme. Although no printed version has yet been identified, it is possible that Burney may have intended to publish them, but they may also have been created for the amusement of his private circle.\n\n
“The Triumph of Music” depicts the type of musical group to which the Burney family belonged, a group of gentlemen (and sometimes ladies) who met to sing, eat, and drink together. Specifically, it refers to types of songs popular during the period; the numerous inscriptions are the titles of catches, canons, glees, and rounds. Glees in particular are characterized by their double, sometimes obscene meanings and the repetition of words or fragments of words. Here, the formal attributes of the picture echo the structures of glee and canon singing: the figures of the three old women on the right, for example, are repeated in the three young women on the left, and salacious visual puns abound. The tall, thin man on the left may be a self-portrait.\n\n
