Season: Summer
News of this event in Count Canal’s garden was published on the day of the event by Prager Morgenpost, although the newspaper gave no details of the programme or identified the participants.
The brief, unsigned review published by Dalibor 1/6/1859 noted that ‘this extraordinary entertainment replaced the usual military music.’ The programme was said to have contained 5 German and 5 Czech choruses for male voices but the text named only the works that apparently were most liked; interestingly all four of these choruses were Czech. On general demand the Quodlibet on Czech songs had to be encored. The review concluded with a wish that ‘more such entertainments would be arranged.’ Described simply by Dalibor as a ‘chorus of young singers’, the ensemble cannot be identified.
