“Doehler will play for the first time in public a new violin concerto by himself; the work is intended for his first concert in London, where he proposes shortly to go.  It consists of three movements: Allegro Maestoso, Andante Con Moto, Allegro Con Spirito, and is arranged for the violin and full orchestra.”

Review: Dwight's Journal of Music, 02 May 1863, 23.

“A concert was given at Irving Hall, on the evening of Sunday, April 19th, under Mr. Anschutz’ direction, at which, besides Mozart’s G Minor Symphony, arias sung by Mdme. Johannsen, Weber’s music to ‘Preeiosa’ [sic] was performed, by a good chorus and orchestra. In order to give the meaning of the detached pieces, the melo-drama was declaimed (adapted and condensed) by Mr. Rose, and Mdme. Scheller, a German actress of agreeable manner and appearance, and who sang the one song of the drama very pleasingly. Weber’s music, so fresh, romantic, and full of melody, was as enjoyable in the concert room as on the stage.”
