Critique of a New Gresham Music Professor
A London observes that the new Music Professor at Sir Thomas Gresham’s lectures relies on borrowed passages, poor elocution, and weak mathematical grounding. The letter urges the electorate to reexamine his qualifications, noting the lectures’ neglect of theory and proper instruction, and laments poor facilities and lighting at the Royal Exchange reading room.
