To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The congregation con- sisted of at least some twelve hundred persons. The exercises commenced by an organ voluntary of about four or five min- utes, at the close of which the whole congregation joined in the old choral everywhere heard in Germany, the first line of which is 1, 5 3, 1 5, 6 6, 5, &c., in the key of E flat major. Two stanzas were sung, each taking four minutes. At the close of the second stanza, the organist, continuing to play, changed gradually his key to A minor, closing an int...ermediate volun- tary of about three minutes, diminishing to pianissimo so as to hush the house to perfect silence ; then, after a moment's pause, the people joined again to the lead of the organ, in the fine old choral beginning as follows : e, a g, f e, d— , e — , &c. Four stanzas were sung of three nnnutes each. Here, then, were two hymns sung in connection ; which, with the organ prelude and interlude occupied full half-an-hour in the performance. Men's voices predominated, marking in strength the bold out- lines of the tune ; while female voices were heard and seemed MATINEE.
