“C. M. A. rehearsal this p.m. Spohr’s Last Judgment delights me more & more. Though without a trace of the force & energy demanded for the full expression of its tremendous subject, the music embodies certain aspects of that subject with wonderful delicacy solemnity & beauty. Lucy [Derby] was there, Miss Cushman, General Culloun, Jem Gerard, Mrs. George Schuyler, etc.”
