Ignatz Moscheles in Leipzig - between 1861 and 1870
from Recent Music and Musicians, pages 412-413:
Today all the Guilds turned out, and I followed the procession as far as the Japanese Palace, where I heard festival songs, festival speeches, and afterwards the anything but festival hodge-podge made by bands of music as they marched away and interlaced each other's tune in the following edifying fashion, waves of sound crossing one another.
