Review: New York Post, 01 March 1865.
“The annual concert of Mrs. J. E. Thomas . . . was a pleasant affair. . . . Mrs. Thomas sang with taste. Mr. E. G. B. Holder made his first appearance in the concert-room as a tenor, singing with much deserved applause several of his own admitted compositions and miscellaneous selections. The other artists assisting gave satisfaction, though Barili was unwell.”
