Sorry, but that's nit what Ebert is writing. To qoute:
"... und dieselbe nachmals aus seinem Beutel auszahlen müssen."
"Dieselbe" here referes to 'Musique' (i.e. ensemble) comming from italy he
ordered/booked and guaranteed (payment).
He lso complains that he had high costs ('Schaden') traveling from England.

Nowhere does Ebert mention whether those 500 Thaler was given to each indiviual
performer (highly unlikely) and not to
the ensemble.
