Review: New-York Times, 22 June 1868, 5.

“Mr. BERGMANN continues his admirable performances at Terrace Garden, and when the skies are propitious he attracts delighted masses to that shady little place. Mr. BERGMANN’S orchestra is composed of the best players, nearly all of them leading members of the Philharmonic Society. The programmes are constantly changed and contain all the latest European attractions.”
