Ignatz Moscheles in London - 1841

from Recent Music and Musicians, page 282:

The other day Kemble, after reading some scenes from 'As You Like It,' ended by way of a joke with the words, 'Come, let us sing, cousin;' whereupon Madame Viardot and Miss Kemble set the example, and we other musicians followed.
