Review: New York Herald, 10 February 1869, 7.

“Among the multitude of performances and the superior excellence of all of them it is difficult to discriminate as to which was the best.  The Japanese fiddle solo by Mr. Harry Rayner was magnificently droll, both in the instrument and music and the quaintly accurate delineation of the Japanese character.  Hofer’s Tyrolese opera troupe, as usual, brought down the house.”
