Commentary:
This event was billed by the Prager Morgenpost 3/11/1858 advertisement as ‘Great Fireworks of the Pyrotechnician Hrn. A. Spietz and Concert of the Music Society of J. Weber.’ The text also noted ‘Zum Schlusse: Die Donatische Comet’ [To close: The Donatisch Comet]. Whether this refered to an astronomical event, a musical item or to the concluding fireworks display is not apparent. The evening was said to commence at 5pm and admission cost 6kr per person.
