Performance Notes"Mr Austin's concert given at the Albert Hall on Saturday afternooon was attended by a large audience- a fact not to be wondred at if it is stated that four of the most popular artists before the public - Mesdames Albani and Treblli and Messrs Sims Reeves and Santley-were the vocalists: that Senor Sarasate played on the violin, and that an additional attraction was held out in the shape of an orchestra and chorus of 300 performers, conducted by Mr W G Cusins."
