text excerpt

[James Douglas recalls a number of usually annual musical outings in his memoir. pp. 7-9]

We also sang at a grand evening Concert at Exeter Hall one of Mr Surman’s, when [St George’s organist] Dr Elvey’s Anthem “In that Day” was sung, the tenor solo being taken by Mr Lockey of St Pauls, & we also sang at a Concert given by Mr John Hullah at Exeter Hall. He was one of the originators I think of the tonic – sol-fa system.
