Talk:Handel Commemoration
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] Organizers
Various people have been named as organizers of this event including John Montagu, 4th Earl of Sandwich [1] and Sir Watkin Williams Wynn [2] --RichardVeryard 22:21, 19 November 2006 (UTC)
- Grove gives Montagu as the director of the event. Mak (talk) 22:27, 19 November 2006 (UTC)
- Thank you Mak. I have added Montagu. Can you provide a source please? And having reread my sources more carefully, I have changed the organizing body from the Academy of Ancient Music to the Concert of Antient Music.
[edit] Dates
All of the reputable material I have found states that the Commemoration took place in 1784, but I have found a couple of sites that mention 1791. --RichardVeryard 22:21, 19 November 2006 (UTC)
