Review: New York Post, 13 March 1865.

     “The complimentary concert extended on Saturday night . . . was in every way a pleasant affair. A much larger number of tickets were sold than the attendance at the house represented. A number of our best resident musicians assisted. Among other features of the programme was Sanderson’s ‘Electric Polka,’ played in a duet by the composer and Mr. Heller.”
