Story behind the song
Oscar Telgman (1855-1946) was a Canadian composer of operettas, a conductor, an educator and a violinist. He was born in 1855 in Germany and emigrated with his family at a young age to Kingston. He is best known for his operetta Leo, the Royal Cadet, composed in 1889. In this aria, Nellie speaks of her love and respect for Leo, a Cadet at the Royal Military College.
