Harlem Conservatory of Music Concert: 1st

“Messrs. Charles Fradel and F. Groux intend, on the 15th of the present month, to inaugurate an uptown conservatory of music. It is claimed, and with justice, that there is a very large population in Harlem, Morrisania and the vicinity, which cannot now procure a suitable musical education without a long journey down town. This difficulty will be removed when Messrs. Fradel & Groux’s project is carried into execution. Mr. Fradel, as our readers are aware, is one of the most pleasing composers in America, and a thorough musician in every possible way. Mr. Groux is also a professor of music of local repute. The establishment is to be on One-hundred-and-twenty-eighth-street, between Second and Third avenues, and will be called the Harlem Conservatory of Music. There will be a grand opening concert on the 13th, at which several of the best artists in America will assist.”
