In 1849 they reached London, where the young violinist played a concerto by De Bériot, at the seventh Philharmonic concert of that season.

He soon began to appear in concerts, generally playing compositions of his own, which won him universal applause by their freshness and originality as much as by his finished execution and large style of cantabile. In 1826 he went to London from Paris, his first appearance taking place on May 1st, before the Philharmonic Society.

Max Bohrer concerts on Monday with Timm, Mrs. Sutton, Antogigni, and Schafenberg; I mean to go. The Philharmonic concerts begin a week from this evening.
