Performance Notes"After the recital at the Queen's Hall no one can doubt that Signor Ruffo's voice will be heard to still greater advantage in the immense void in which he is singing on Sunday. If his voice is not the most beautiful, it is certainly the most intense that we have ever heard."
(The Spectator, 12 May 1922)

King George V granted use of the Royal Box to soldiers and sailors who were blinded in the First World War for all Sunday afternoon concerts in this season.
