​CALVARY, the English version of Spohr's oratorio of 'Des Heilands letzte Stunden.' The translation was made by Mr Edward Taylor, and the first performance took place at the Norwich Festival of 1839 under Spohr's own direction. It was again performed, in his presence, under Costa's baton, by the Sacred Harmonic Society, at Exeter Hall, July 5, 1852. [App. p.575 adds "The performance at the Norwich Festival was not the first, as the work had been given in the Hanover Square Rooms by the Vocal Society, under Mr. Edward Taylor, March 27, 1837."]
