“Miss Bulkley, a young contralto singer well known in musical circles, gave a concert at the Union League Theatre last evening, assisted by [see above]. Signor Agramonte was the conductor and accompanist. Under his skillful teaching Miss Bulkley is rapidly acquiring breadth and ease of style and facility of vocalization. She sang her first aria from the Huguenots with great taste and in a pleasing and finished manner. Her many friends were enthusiastic in applause and generous in the presentation of flowers. Mr. Romeyn added greatly to the interest of the concert. His songs were well chosen and admirably sung. The scena ‘Hero and Leander,’ for soprano, composed upon Tennyson’s words by Mr. Walter and sung by Mrs. Brown, is a fine composition, original in form, and full of beautiful phrases. The accompaniment, a difficult one, was played by Mr. Walter, and Mrs. Brown, though evidently suffering from a cold, rendered it so as to win for herself an encore. Mr. Remmertz and Mr. Mills performed in their usual artistic manner.”
