Unclear if this concert and that given at Dr. Ward’s residence on 04/18/70 are part of the same “series” referred to by the New York Sun review for that earlier event (see event entry of 04/18/70: Ward Residence Charitable Concert: 1st).

Review: New York Herald, 29 April 1870, 6.

“A private concert was given on Tuesday evening at Dr. Ward’s, in aid of the Children’s Fold, by the Rivarde Musical Club, assisted by the eminent pianist, R. Vilanova. The programme consisted of selections from the Italian opera, and the performance was highly creditable throughout.”
