“Wednesday: Rehearsal tonight (Trinity Chapel Schoolhouse). We drove up to Forty-something St. for Mrs. Davidson, who consents to serve. Rehearsal very full, 150 at least. Mass, Quonian tu solus, to end, some part of the dull Lobgesang. Mass delicious, especially Benedictus & Dona. Pech as funny, spasmodic & energetic as usual.”
