“Meanwhile, through all these changes, as through all the heats of summer, Mr. Theodore Thomas and his incomparable orchestra play on, appreciated, applauded, and patronized in such liberal fashion as to show that he and they are educating us up to a thorough understanding of the divine art of music. The benefits conferred upon the American public by this missionary of art, Theodore Thomas, cannot be over-estimated, and great should be his reward.”
