[3], 4-7, [1] pp., printed in blue-coloured ink, self-printed decorative softcovers, small woodcut engraved device of piano on front cover, woodcut printer's device on back cover (couple very minor spots, slight shelfwear), NF copy. First edition of this exceedingly scarce original program for the fifth concert organized by the nascent Portland Philharmonic Society formed in 1866, which would operate until 1874. The evening's offerings opened with the Society Anthem, soprano solo, duet & chorus, followed by Double Quartette, a piano solo by Prof. Grob, solo by his daughter Miss O. Grob, and violin solo as well. Wyatt (1828-1905) was an Oregon pioneer who first emigrated to the territory from Vermont in 1850 via steamship, and was a longtime hardware merchant in Portland, musical enthusiast, and his wife Maggie Congle Wyatt (1847-1917) was a popular singer, and daughter to local and successful liveryman John Congle who had brought his family over the Oregon Trail in 1847. Prof. H. Guido Grob (fl. 1865-1870) operated a music studio and school in downtown Portland, OR at First & Alder from 1865-1870. No copies in Worldcat, or Belknap, Oregon Imprints 1845-1870.
