Twenty-Second Regiment Promenade Concert: 5th

     “The members of the gallant and amusement-loving Twenty-second Regiment National Guard gave another of their promenade concerts last evening at their spacious and handsome armory, in Fourteenth St.  This makes the fifth concert of the present series.  The following was the program of the evening, being admirably interpreted by the regimental band under the leadership of T. J. Dodworth: Quickstep ‘Alexandria;’ Aria from I Puritani, ‘A te o cara;’ overture, Alessandro Stradella; polka, ‘Leap Year;’ charivari, ‘Pot Pourri;’ promenade, ‘Sorgenbrecher Waltz;’ grand finale from La Juive; overture, Poet and Peasant; lied, ‘Lob der Thrane;’ ‘Harlequin’ polka; quickstep, ‘Louisen;’ and ‘Josephine Galop.’  Owing to the weather, the multiplicity of balls and social hops of late, and the attractions of the Bateman concert last night at the Academy, the fifth promenade concert of the Twenty-second Regiment was not so well attended as has hitherto been the rule.  Still there were a large number of the numerous friends of the regiment present, who made the tour of the drill rooms and enjoyed the delicious music so joyously beating against the rafters.  The range of rooms occupied by this favorite command are admirably suited for pleasant meetings and still pleasanter greetings, and last night these peculiarities were enjoyed to their fullest extent by the younger portion of the audience present.”

     “The regular promenade concert of the Twenty-second regiment was held . . . last evening, and was, as is usual at the select entertainments of that organization, attended by a highly fashionable party of ladies and gentlemen.  The music was charming.”
