1875 - On January 9 he played in the concert hall of the Music Institute in Orleans with the participation of Miss Lory, we presume they were singers. A brief review of the event was published in one of the dailies: ‘(...) The audience of Orleans gave the great violinist a very warm reception, calling him back on stage after each composition. The charming Lory sisters were also very nicely received. The orchestra performed an overture to Suppé's <<The Queen of Spades>> and Leutner's Fest-Ouverture, very well received by the audience (...)’

On March 9 he played: Beethoven's Violin Concerto with his own cadenzas, his own Fantasy on themes from ‘Faust’, "Legend" and Prelude for solo violin. On March 12, he performed a completely different program: Mendelssohn’s Concerto, Beethoven's Romance in F major, Second Polonaise of his own composition and Ernst's ‘Airs hongrois’.

‘(...) Perhaps Mr. Wieniawski has no such soul or communicative warmth as Mr. Sarasate, (...) but his technique, the art of extracting sounds and effects from the violin as unexpected as possible, cannot rise higher (...)’; ‘(...) While restrained and classical in Beethoven's great concert, he was brilliant in <<Fantasy on themes from Faust>>, and full of grace and poetry in <<Legend>>, his composition (...)’; ‘(...) Precision, mastery of this truly magical bow (...)’ - reviews reveal ('Salut Public', 'Courrier de Lyon', 12.03.1878).

In the spring of 1869, Henryk Wieniawski gives a private concert for Sultan Abdülaziz at the Dolmabahçe Palace in Constantinople (present Istanbul). The event was described by "Gazeta Polska":

It is well known that today's sultan is a music lover. (...) He plays the piano with great pleasure; many compositions were dedicated to him with an explicit request to be played out with his own hands. The artists staying in Tsarogrod make every effort to enable them to play against the paddishah. This honor is usually earned by the title of his majesty's Sultan court virtuoso, and the nomination is usually accompanied by a generous gift of cash. Recently, the violinist Henryk Wieniawski has received this honor, and an eyewitness (correspondent of the Perseveranza daily) describes it as follows.

Wieniawski, upon arriving in Dolmabahçe, was immediately taken to the palace. He was led through a multitude of unfurnished rooms, packed with eunuchs, guards, courtiers and loafers. At the end, the virtuoso was allowed into a small lounge, which was only furnished with a piano and a chair. It was winter; there was a fire in the mantelpiece, but it gave so little heat that it was cold in the living room. This lounge was between others; in one of them courtiers and guards, in the other a sultan hidden in a corner so that the artist would not notice him; at the door of the last one, chamberlain (...) It was not the most pleasant way for the artist to begin the concert in such circumstances; the court maestro standing next to him asked him to play.

After playing the first play, the sultan demanded the second, then the third, etc., until he reached twenty-two, Wieniawski ran out of strength, and he interrupted it halfway... to receive the sultan's gift, consisting of two bags containing 100 livres in gold each, which is about 1,800 rubles.

My dear Director,

I have just received your letter (...) and I am surprised what news you expect from me. I informed you about everything during our last meeting in Brussels, and what is more it was included in two letters (one to the Minister of Home Affairs), which I was honored to send you from Vienna in November.

The above-mentioned letters have remained unanswered until today, and I understood that it was not your intention to continue the matter. As far as I am concerned, I have not changed my mind since then, so I have no choice but to ask you by means of this letter to accept my resignation as professor at the Royal Conservatory in Brussels.

This resignation, I assure you, dear Director, will not affect my feelings of devotion and old friendship towards you, but will give satisfaction to the opinions of the tabloid press that believe (and I agree with them) that a foreign intruder should not be granted the honor of sharing the glory and be a professor at the Conservatory in Brussels together with the greatest of the violin art in Belgium.

Thanking you for your kind attitude towards my students at the 1876 Competition and asking you to remember me to Mrs. Gevaert, I remain devoted to you (outside the conservatory).
