from The Journal of Mary Frampton, from the Year 1779, until the year 1846, page 344:
Madame Lalande was the new woman at the opera this season, a finished singer, but with a thin, reedy voice. Lablache, the man, with a most magnificent and powerful one; but the great attraction at the opera was the dancing, Mdlle. Taglioni uniting the grace of Hilligsberg of the last century with the strength and activity required in this period.
