Announcement: New York Herald, 18 May 1865, 4.

     “Signor Mongiardini, the tenor, announces a concert at Irving Hall on Saturday evening.  The programme is full of promise for an excellent entertainment, and the artists cannot fail to do it justice, when we find among them Antonio and Ettore Barili, Mr. Pattison, Mrs. Farnham, Mrs. Kempton and Signorina Agrati.

Review: New York Post, 22 May 1865.

     “Signor Mongiardini gave a pleasant concert at Irving Hall on Saturday evening, at which three lady vocalists, Signora Agrati, Mrs. Charles Farnham and Mrs. Jennie Kempton, assisted.  Mr. Pattison was the solo pianist, and received several encores.  Signors Barili and Mongiardini sung most acceptably.”
