comment: Entered from New York Times review ("In Aid of Barnard College," Feb. 13, 1895, pg. 9); stated time is approximate. This event was a benefit for a fund for a Chair of American History at Barnard College, presented under the auspices of the New York City chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution. The article notes that the concert was originally scheduled to take place in the Chamber Music Hall, but advanced ticket sales showed a need for a larger venue, so the event was moved to the Recital Hall; an estimated 500 to 600 persons were in attendance.
