“Theodore Thomas will resume his place at the Central Park Garden to-night, and his return will be heartily welcomed by that large constituency of lovers of music who have learned to look upon him as a personal friend.”
“The lovers of musical art will be pleased to know that Mr. Theodore Thomas returned to the city to-day, and will conduct his orchestra at the Central Park Garden this evening. Although so short a holiday is scarcely sufficient, yet the devotion of Mr. Thomas to his work is so great that he intends to superintend personally the summernights’ concerts, to the end of the season. With the valuable assistance of Mr. Dudley Buck, the tax upon his energies will be considerably reduced.”“The lovers of musical art will be pleased to know that Mr. Theodore Thomas returned to the city to-day, and will conduct his orchestra at the Central Park Garden this evening.
