Jenny Lind Centenary Celebrations At Castle Garden And Carnegie Hall
The Jenny Lind centenary will be celebrated October 6 at Castle Garden with exercises and a Carnegie Hall concert reviving the historic program from the Battery. Mme Frieda Hempel will sing in place of Lind, who toured America under Barnum after a forged contract incident. The piece recalls Lind’s 11,000 attendance debut in New York, Barnum’s profit split, and her later marriage to Otto Goldschmidt in 1862.
