“Edward Mollenhauer has opened in Schuberth’s Building, No. 820 Broadway, the Musical Conservatory, of which he is director. The professors number the brothers Mollenhauer, both very accomplished musicians, Ferdinand Ritter, Messrs. Tomoro and Gianetti, Schreiber, Heydtmann, Schrmipf, Geoschel [sic], Lepeal, Wellenstein and Hennig, well-known in their departments of music. This institution has every promise of growth to meet a wide and highly intelligent demand. The professorships are unusually varied and able. The price per year of 80 lessons is but $32.”
