Georg Henschel in Berlin - the 1870's

from Musings & memories of a musician, page 55:

The numerous public gardens where Gipsy bands played, especially attracted us, and it was a delight to notice the increased spirit those brown sons of the Puszta put into their music in the presence of the master who had done so much toward opening up to their beloved tunes a wider sphere of popularity.
