Formed from the merger of two journals published by the Mason Brothers, The New York Musical Review and Choral Advocate and the Musical Gazette, the journal had no declared editor though Theodore Hagen eventually became the defacto editor. Published fortnightly from 1 January 1855 to 28 April 1860, this new journal continued the format of the previous Musical Review and Choral Advocate with an expanded scope. Correspondence from across the growing United States is featured alongside musical news and gossip, concert reviews, and articles on a wide variety of musical topics.
