Program Details

This is the third concert of this series to be held on a Saturday. (Early announcements for the Popular Garden concerts indicate that no Saturday concerts will be given as part of the series, but provide no reason why. [See citations of Thomas Popular Garden Concert: 1st on 06/10/67.] A possible explanation for the off Saturdays comes by way of a one-sentence announcement in the New York Herald on 06/17/67, p. 6: "The Arions have Terrace Garden on Saturday nights for their entertainments.")

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.
