“Anschutz’s second season has closed, and next week he goes to Philadelphia, where he has already been so successful this winter. We wish to praise in the highest manner the management of Mr. Anschutz. He has produced here a great many novelties for the operatic line, all most judiciously chosen and put on the stage in the most admirable manner. His artistic choruses and orchestra were unexceptionable, and were certainly worthy of the patronage bestowed upon them by a large and discriminating audience. The operas performed were given in full, with artists capable of doing justice to the chef d’oeuvres they were representing, who in their turn were supported by an orchestra and choruses such as any grand opera might desire to obtain. To the talent and artistic taste of the management was this excellence due, and we congratulate, it and the public alike upon the successes of the season which has just closed.”
