komentář:

The review by Dalibor 20/3/1859 criticized the programme content. ‘This concert [. . .] was for each connoisseur of music a sahara, in which the violin solo excellently performed by Ant[onín] Benevic formed an oasis. The success of the concert was, as to the pieces performed, and undoubtedly also the material benefit, modest. The members of the Estates Theatre performed [. . .] well enough. The concert-arranger [Illner], formerly a member of the Czech theatre, gave - joy to the homeland! - to the Czech audience aside from twelve German numbers also a little bauble, namely „Kde domov můj“, which the gracious Czech audience rewarded with noisy applause.’ The solo vocalists in Abt’s octet were F. Fektér, Ed. Bachmann, Böhm, Peták, Steinecke, Ignác [Hynek] Illner, Karel Strakatý and Albert Eilers. When specifying ‘twelve German numbers’ the Dalibor review was almost certainly referring to the content of the whole concert programme arranged by Illner and performed by various soloists, rather than suggesting that Illner himself had performed twelve German vocal works.
