Besides the City Concerts, so-called Amateur Concerts were given at an
early period and were still kept up in 1791, contrary to the belief
of O. G. Sonneck. For instance there are advertisements and programs
showing that the usual standard of concert music was performed.
“AMATEURS’ CONCERT.
A concert will be performed at Mr. Henry Epple’s, at Seven o’clock this
Evening.”[203]
