APGRD Notes
Student company using "Mendelssohn's complete vocal and orchestral score" in English. The translation reproduced in the programme for the sections Mendelssohn set to music is that of William Batholomew (1845); a reviewer claimed that the translation used for the episodia was the prose translation by Richard Jebb. The Sun (Vancouver), claimed it to be "the first Greek drama ever given in Vancouver" (26 Apr. 1915, p.3).
