The crowd is dressed in attire typical of the early 20th century, with men in suits and hats, and women in dresses and coats.

The artist has used a range of colors to capture the mood of the scene, from the bright lights of the concert stage to the muted tones of the surrounding buildings. The brushstrokes are bold and expressive, adding to the sense of energy and movement in the painting.
