As is so often the case, I was drafted to coach a bunch of persons desirous of expressing themselves in song, and missed the Ellison concert Sunday, in Jordan Hall. I have met many of the large crowd who enjoyed the privilege of hearing them, and they all are enthusiastic of the work which they unite in pronouncing up to the Ellison standard. The talented pair are desirous of expressing their thanks to all who supported their Jordan Hall debut.
