“The twenty-sixth Sunday concert of Mr. Harrison, at Steinway Hall, attracted the usual large audience. The programme comprised the following artists:--Miss Kate McDonald, soprano; S. B. Mills, piano; F. Letsch, trombone and J. Clark, basso. The last named gentleman made his debut and gave promise of being a valuable acquisition to the concert hall. The orchestra played selections from Rietz, Rossini, Flotow and Mozart.”
“Thus it will be seen Mr. Harrison is quite as busy and as prosperous as any Manager of Concerts can possibly be; indeed, almost beyond precedent. Credit is due him for a brave and generous venture, and for the positive musical benefit which so many of his Concerts, the Sunday series particularly, have been.”
