Diary entry 6th February 1728 [With] Mrs. Helen D’Enly to the Opera. ‘Radamistus’, an old one - thought I had never seen it - found I had. So thin an Opera and so ill perform’d I never was at. Crezzoni ill; did not sing. Senesino would not exert himself; coud scarce hear him. For the rest, ‘twas all one to me. Starv’d [cold] all the time. Veryly the Musick of the Beggar’s Opera far exceeded it. None of the Royal Family there. |
