Description The Amateur Concert, which took place on Wednesday last, was very much on a par, in point of attraction, with most of its predecessors; but the attendance of company was not quite so brilliant as usual. We have heard this circumstance, mainly attributed to its not being generally known that a concert was about to take place.

Further Information No details of program or participants survives for this concert, reported in only one newspaper, and advertised in none of them. Due to the dispute with Harriet Jones and her supporters, she is almost certain not to have appeared. If the event reported indeed took place, it was perhaps little or nothing more than an open rehearsal. (Skinner)
