Commentary:

Rehearsal held in advance of Requiem service to be given on 16/11/1859 at the Church of St Clement to commemorate the death of Josef Jungmann twelve years ago on 14/11/1847. The Dalibor report remarked that ‘it is possible to hope, that plenty of singers and amateurs will present themselves.’
