Zuerst führte ihn hierher das denkwürdige Konzert vom 25. Oktober 1853, mit dem die Witwen-und Waisen-Pensionsanstalt der Herzoglichen Hofkapelle begründet wurde, und das durch mehrere Werke Berlioz’, von ihm selbst vorgeführt, seine eigentliche Prägung erhielt.

Überall sprach man über den Verlauf der Proben, wobei auch heitere Episoden nicht fehlten. Weshalb Copyright ©bernate.pages.dev 2025 |
