Extract

The History of the Madrigal Society is worthy of record, if only because it has existed for two hundred and fifteen years for the purpose of enabling its members to sing madrigals for their own enjoyment. It only ceased its regular meetings during the whole of this period after April 1940, when meetings were suspended owing to the aerial bombardment of London, till they were resumed in January 1946.
