It is not the loftiness of the place nor the thousands in the audience that makes the occasion great, nor is it the beauty or wealth; poverty or reputation of the singer that saves the day. Each of the singers favored by the opportunity must rise on time to fulfill the exact score of the great Master's writing, of the splendid piece he or she has undertaken to render.
