Kronfeld. “Last night of Joseph in Egypt.â€

"The German opera company has given, during the last week, three excellent performances of Mehul's 'Joseph in Egypt' to very large audiences. The music, though somewhat old fashioned, is elevated in style, and possesses genuine melody. Rotter, as Benjamin, and Weinlich, as old Jacob, both made a signal success."
