John Perceval in London, England - 13 February, 1729

from Manuscripts of the Earl of Egmont. Diary of Viscount Percival Afterwards First Earl of Egmont, page 46:

Diary entry 13th February 1729

In the evening I went to our vocal club, where Mr. Green’s ‘Te Deum’ and other of his works were performed, and they show him to be a great composer, and to tread in the steps of the Italian masters.
