“With Increased Chorus and Orchestra, Under the direction of Carl Anschutz. . . . Several Singing Societies have kindly consented to assist in the choruses.”

“Anschutz’ German company has given ‘Fidelio’ and ‘Don Giovanni’ at the Academy, with much less effect and success than at the small theatre, where the little troupe had no disadvantageous comparisons to fear—of course leaving the character of the music they perform and their excellent orchestra out of the question.”
