“Irving Hall.—Mr. Gottschalk’s second concert at this establishment last evening was attended by a brilliant and crowded audience, composed as it is apt to be at these entertainments, of a large portion of ladies. The various pieces played by Mr. Gottschalk were received with the enthusiastic favor that is their due. It would be folly to say that Mr. Gottschalk plays better than he did; he is always superb. Mr. Castle, the tenor, Miss Emily Boughton, Mr. Theodore Thomas and Signor Abella assisted.”
“A large audience assembled at Irving Hall last evening to hear M. Gottschalk’s second concert of this season. Want of space prevents our entering into the details of this performance. Gottschalk was successful as usual. He played with exquisite taste and skill, and was boisterously applauded. Miss Boughton sang with great success, and was likewise warmly applauded. Mr. Castle and Mr. Theodore Thomas were also very successful in their efforts. The concert was undoubtedly a success.”
“Mr. Gottschalk, whose name is talismanic to draw crowds of admirers, has been giving two concerts, this week, to brilliant audiences at the Irving Hall. To-night, he will give another concert, and show the taste and skill which have made him equally renowned in Europe and America.”
