 Champagne and Cotuit oysters were followed by the congregational singing of a Latin anthem written for the association.The house's inaugural concert was performed, consisting of Beethoven's Archduke Trio, Handel's "O, Ruddier than the Cherry", two songs by Bach, and Beethoven's "Adelaide".After these performances and hors d'œuvres, ninety members of the association ascended to the Marsh Room where, over the next three hours, a seven-course candlelight feast was consumed.
