Spohr

There can be no doubt that Spohr was a composer who made a considerable impression upon Chopin.

In the evening we went to the theatre—a shabby, ugly building—and heard Spohr's Jessonda.

It was unsolicited: Spohr himself had asked for the score; and this had a double or triple value to Wagner.

Spohr was by chance in Beethovens rooms at one of the rehearsals and heard him play—the only time.

One of the most interesting incidents of Spohr's life now occurred.
