Letter from Mary Delany to Ann [Granville] Dewes, 24th January 1744 I was yesterday morning at Mr. Handel’s to hear the rehearsal of Semele. It is a delightful piece of music, quite new and different from anything he has done: but I am afraid I shall hear no more music this year, and that will be a loss to me, – but the harmony of friendship must make up that loss. As we have a prospect of meeting soon I defer a particular account of it till we meet. Francescina is improved, and sings the principal part in it. |
