Philadelphia, Nov. 5th, 1862. Dear Sir: During the past two seasons in the city of New York there has been given a series of grand concerts, by the famous Seventh Regiment Band, ... In a city like Philadelphia, there is a great want of an entertainment of this kind, and there is no reason why such an enterprise should not succeed here, if properly encouraged, and judicially managed. ... I have engaged a full military band and grand orchestra, composed of forty of the best musicians, under the direction of two well-known and popular conductors, to be know as the "Orpheus Musical Association," and propose to give a series of first class concerts at the Academy of Music. To enable me to accomplish this, (as it involves a great expense,) I must obtain one thousand subscribers, who will each take a season ticket
