Some of his remarks are exceedingly humorous. In the Overture to the " Midsummer Night's Dream " [played at the Festival], the gradations of sound were not well preserved ; a rattle of his bdt'jH on the music-stand brings the band to a dead halt. "Gentlemen, " says Mendelssohn, "that won't do. All fortissimo, all pianissimo, no piano ! A little piano between, if you please. Must have piano, gentlemen; when you come to fortissimo, do as you like. " All this is expressed with animation and good h...umour, and a roar of laughter over, the band tries again, and a smile playing on the expressive features of the conductor, attests the power of his pleasantly administered corrective. ... At its conclusion the whole band and chorus broke into a torrent of enthusiastic acclama- tion. After the oratorio had been rehearsed, Mendelssohn expressed himself highly pleased with the manner in which the performers had rendered his work, and complimented them on their extraordinary efficiency.
As Moscheles, the Conductor-in-chief of the Festival, was unwell, Mendelssohn conducted the evening rehearsal for him.
