RichardB Posted November 12, 2010 Share Posted November 12, 2010 23rd February 1869 On 23rd February (1869) the Broomhill Musical Festival was held at the chapel in Broomhill which was well filled. The Dettingem Te Deum and Haydns Third Mass were given with much effect. The vocalists were selected from the Sheffield Choral Union, Mrs Lee, Miss Harrison, Mr Albert Wilson and Mr Masser giving the solos with the utmost success. The choruses were sung with remarkable precision. Mr Edward Lee ably presided at the organ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonder if it should be Haydn's Third Mass (sometimes known as the St Cecilia Mass) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now, about St Cecilia you're breaking my heart, you're shaking my confidence daily ... wasn't that by Simon and Garfunkel with a tremendous Zither-solo or am I just making stuff up again ?

No comment. I shall muddy the waters a little more by suggesting that the Dettingen Te Deum is actually by Handel . It was written to commemorate the British victory at the Battle of Dettingen.
