Ignatz Moscheles in Leipzig - between 1854 and 1855

from Recent Music and Musicians, page 388:

In her very young days I heard her play in Paris, and prophesied for her at that time a brilliant future; I think events have proved the clearness of my prophetic vision. Miss Goddard conquers enormous difficulties with consummate grace and ease, her touch is clear and pure as a bell. Here, as everywhere, she found that recognition which not even the severest art critic could withhold.
