Commentary:

Prager Morgenpost 15/7/1863 published an advertisement for this event, announcing: ‘Today and each following Wednesday on the Žofín Island Great Military Concert [grosses Militär-Concert]. Admission free.’ No further details were given by this source. The description as simply ‘on the Žofín Island’ suggested that the event took place in the gardens of the island and not in the Žofín Hall.
