“Michael Connelly, the efficient and popular musical director of Niblo’s Garden, publishes in another column a number of laudatory notices of himself, culled from the various city papers. He is a thorough artist, and his selections of music for the entr’acts are ever bright and sparkling. The music of ‘Leo and Lotus,’ much of which is his own composition, may be classed amongst the most appropriate and best spectacular music ever heard here. Read what the papers say of him.” Next column: review of the Siegrists’ performance.
