In the daily "La Patria" (Madrid. 1849) October 7, 1849 páge 3, it mentions Altimira had made a guitar for Francisco Trinidad Huerta.

"Lovers of the truth, we cannot pass in silence the exquisite work that the guitar maker Don Juan (sic) de Altimira who lives in Calle de Escudellers has just done. The said gentleman, already known for works of great value and merit, has just made a guitar in a whole equal to the so famous that the celebrated guitarist Mr.Francisco Trinidad Huerta owns and it's even better, according to his opinion."

Upon doing more research we find Francisco Trinidad Huerta and his 10 year old son who played violin performing a Sunday January 9, 1859, 1 PM matinee concert at the Gran Teatro del Liceo in Barcelona documented in the "Diario de Barcelona" Tuesday January 4, 1859 No. 004. This was the sendoff concert, as they were going to Paris afterward. One of the pieces to be played was with the left hand alone. Tickets were available at the Agustin Altimira guitar workshop and at the Bernarechi music store, as well as at the Salvador Manero bookstore (This was a location where you could buy the debut of new Jules Verne novels, other contemporary authors, scientific and medical books.) The program was documented on January 8, 1859 in the "Diario de Barcelona: Año 1859, no. 008 (8 enero 1859) Ed. mañana". The photo of the Gran Teatro del Liceo in Barcelona is from the bimonthly magazine: "La Música ilustrada hispano-americana" (Barcelona). February 10, 1899, n.º 4. The theater was founded in 1837, but opened this location in 1847.
