Fashionable Church Music Described In New York Scene
A vivid account recalls a New York church spectacle where patrons paid for prime seats as sextons tore apart the venue and an organist battled the instrument in a theatrical display. The chaotic service ended with frenzied singing and damp, exhausted performers. Also noted are societal commentaries on Huntingdon and a Mississippi case of restitution for Graves, plus Theodore Parker’s festival sentiment and a frost tragedy in Montreal.
