Music Master at Mrs. Lemon's School

Title

Music Master at Mrs. Lemon's School

Description

Rosamond Vincy's music teacher, the organist at St. Peter's. "Her master . . . was one of those exoellent musicians here and there to be found in our provinces . . . Rosamond, with the executant's instinct, had seized his manner of playing, and gave forth his large rendering of noble music with the precision of an echo . . . A hidden soul seemed to be flowing forth from Rosamond's fingers; and so indeed it was, since souls live on in perpetual echoes, and to all fine expression there goes somewhere an originating activity, if it be only that of an interpreter."
