Ignatz Moscheles in Theatre Royal, Drury Lane - 1844
from Recent Music and Musicians, page 299:
At Drury Lane Theatre, I heard Benedict's opera 'The Brides of Venice'; there are fine orchestral effects and the vocal parts are well treated, and worthy of special commendation. The music was well received, and the composer called for. . . . Incredible, and yet true.
