VICTORIA ("VITTORIA")
Sir,-I have noted with interest the spelling "Victoria" in the Concise Oxford Dictionary of Music, alluded to in your comment on my recent representations, The name "Victoria" also appears in the well-known "Groves" Musical Dictionary. On the other hand, two eminent English musicians (Sir Walford Davies and Henry G. Ley), as co-editors, have published this composer’s work under the name "Vittoria", For nearly 20 years "Vittoria" has been familiar to Christchurch Cathedral congregations (printed accordingly in the Service lists from time to time), and it so happens that "Vittoria" appears in both City newspaper advertisements today (February 23), in relation to the anthem "O Quam Gloriosum" set down for Sexacesima
Sunday.
