The citations mark Raff's "Adagietto" as "new;" this indicates that it is either new to America or new to the Popular Garden concert series. (The first concert at which Thomas began to premiere new works in this concert series was the Thomas Popular Garden Concert: 19th on 07/02/67.)
The citations with programs name the selection from Gounod’s Faust as "Grand selection, no. 2."

Review: New-Yorker Musik-Zeitung, 03 August 1867, 824.
The concerts here offer so many new and interesting things that they have been fairly well attended despite the inclement weather at times. Five to six novelties are in the program each night, which Thomas bought up during his travels in France and Germany this summer.
