Birmingham Grand Festival Concert Review
From our correspondent, a Birmingham audience of over four thousand filled the great hall. Praises and critiques mixed as Beethoven's Pastoralle impressed, while some solos and choruses, including Novello and Malibran references, drew mixed judgments. Neukomm’s David failed as a whole though parts and choruses showed merit. Braham and the chorus shone in places.
