Review: New-York Times, 21 February 1873, 5.

“The programme of dancing music, by Bernstein, was exceptionally good, both to the variety and dances and choice selections of music, the latter including, besides the familiar music of Strauss and Offenbach, many rare selections of a higher class of music, while the promenade music, selected and led by Deitz, was the best heard in the Academy this season.”
