| After leaving [[Pozzuoli]], the composer returned to the ''Hôtel Métropol'' in Naples. He visited the Teatro di San Carlo on several occasions, and toured widely around the region with his companions. "Naples does provide any possibility for concentration, with its noise, its beauty, and with its vivid colours, it distracts one's mind from work" <ref name="note2"/>. Nevertheless, he was able to complete the ''[[All-Night Vigil]]'' in Naples by 7/19 March.
