"At the somewhat novel hour of 11 A. M., Mr. Wehli, the eminent pianist, will give a matinée at Irving Hall. The simple announcement will suffice to crowd the hall.”

Review: New York Herald, 09 December 1866, 8.

Brief. “Mr. Wehli’s matinée was pretty well attended yesterday, considering the inclement state of the weather. He played some of his own compositions, as usual, and was assisted by the charming vocalist, Miss Kate McDonald, and Mr. Eichberg, composer of the Doctor of Alcantara.”
