Review: New-York Daily Tribune, 23 March 1869, 1.

“Mr. Levy continues to fill Irving Hall on Sunday night, and the audience never seem to hear enough of his wonderful cornet. The entertainment certainly does not lack variety, the list of popular singers and pianists who appear with hith [sic] being a very long if not always a very strong one. The orchestra has improved. Last Sunday it gave a creditable performance of Liszt’s ‘Preludes,’ and several other pieces of a more popular character.”
