Program Details

All of the citations bill this event as the "Tenth Grand Sunday Concert," which was a subset of the Popular Garden Concert series. (These Sunday performances are also sometimes billed as "sacred concerts;" see Thomas Popular Garden Concert: 6th on 06/16/67 and Thomas Popular Garden Concert: 12th on 06/23/67. Notably, this is the first week of the series that the New-Yorker Staats-Zeitung und Herold does not use the word "sacred.") A season pass for $10, which was offered at the beginning of the Popular Garden series in June, included admission to the Sunday concerts.

The citations do not provide a composer for the Carnaval de Venise burlesque. In 1868, the Popular Garden concert series featured a piece of the same title by Ernst, so that is what is listed here.

No concert was given as part of the Popular Garden series on Saturday, August 17th.
