“[Trinity Church]: Service (orchestral) mostly from Mozart’s Mass no. 1. Offertory from Beethoven’s Mount of Olives, including the noble ‘Hallelujah.’ All wonderfully well done, considering. Orchestral finale the 4th movement of the C minor. Our little 1st soprano (Leiden) took the outrageous high notes in the Beethoven solo with audacity & success.”“[Trinity Church]: Service (orchestral) mostly from Mozart’s Mass no. 1.
