Memorable Moments

During the 18th performance, Lady Elizabeth Dunford's string snapped, resulting in a halt of her performance. After her instrument had been restrung, she resumed her piece following Lady Rosalind Fairmont's performance. Unfortunately, the string went out of tune, resulting in an earsplitting final half.
