Review: New York Herald, 09 November 1874, 8.

“...But the great feature of the services was the music, the excellent rendering of ‘Schmidtz’s Fifth Mass,’ specially composed by the organist, Mr. Gustavus Schmidtz, for the first officiation of the Archbishop on his return from his tour of Europe. The various parts…were all finely sang.”
