Charles Halle in Manchester - January, 1856

from Life and letters of Sir Charles Hallé; being an autobiography (1819-1860) , page 365:

The performance of the 'Elijah' this evening was in many respects satisfactory, though the soloists left something to be desired. According to old-established custom, the public gave no sign of approval throughout, which naturally was not encouraging to the performers.
