Royal Opera, Dbuey Lajie. —The Revival O...
so often and so highly spoken in these columns tha # to repeat mere variations of the old song , that the fiery execution of "Vfteniawski , the artistic intelli ^ geiice of Piatti , and their confrere $ ,- ' -vrould weary the reader ' s patience . The fame of the Labkowitz and iiasonioivski quartets has , thanks to such players as those engaged by the directors of these concerts , and the appreciation of the press , now been disseminated through England . We can but add that the prevalent reports of the musical delight to be liere experienced are by no means exaggerated . It is , of course , not given to many to understand , as pretend the abstrukr German critics and their . English imitators , the unintelligible , and to fathom
the bottomless . The man of sense . pities as he smiles at the " interpretations " or programmes of musical pieces composed by fitful dreamers , with little other purpose , and certainly no other end , than to furnish fit-Id for the display of instrumental perfection and refined taste . But all who seek these elegant soirees-vith no unreasonable expectations will , ere they leave , acknowledge a deeper sense of the power " of sound , the sensual effect of music , and a closer acquaintance . -with the perfection to which musical culture , superadded to tine taste , will bring
the ear and touch of the executant . I Icrr Keichardt sang in his own best stylo , and with that deep sentimenttliey demand , the songs allotted , to him . Madame liemmens was particularly successful in the air from Mr . Macfarren ' s comic Quixote ; and last , not least , the unaffected Halle enjoyed that marked appreciation and applause which all pianoforte players of merit mnv count upon , and which is never more spontaneously decreed than to himself . The performance on Monday evening next will comprise the celebrated Kreutzer Sonata of Beethoven , and a
miscellaneous selection of vocal music , the same artists being engaged in both departments Princess ' s Theatre . — The only novelty ' this week is a revival . of Mr . Dance ' s adaptation of " A Wonderful Woman , " a very choice little comedy , originally produced ( in England ) at the Lyceum Theatre . Mr . A . tlarris made his debut- "before this audience ( at -least , Jurying appeared as manager only , heretofore ) in the part of the Marquis of Frontignac , and played thelight hearted , extravagant , but sensitive and honourable young nobleman with much spirit , vivacity , and feeling . Miss C . Leclercq played the Marchioness , charmingly , and Mr . F . Mathews -was a capital Crepin , the cobbler .
St . James ' s Theatre . —A sprightly trifle , entitled—Citptivatingly enough for the ladies—" The Swan and Edgar "—lias found its way on to these boards , from the joint study of Messrs . Sutherland Edwards and C . Kenney , who , we believe , are entitled to the merit of having elaborated it from their own heads instead of , as customary , from the more easily-squeezed one of a French author . It is , altogether , a v-er ' y pleasing specimen , as would say the ¦ world-renowned firm in Regent-street ( who , we are pleased to announce , have not filed an injunction against the title ) , of British manufacture , genuine and sound in warp and -woof , not grand and gaudy before , and worthless behind . The Swan of the
piece , otherwise the fairy Cygnetta , is Miss Xydia Thompson ; Miss Clara St . Casse is the JEdgar . A bold and burly Baron Tchuffenhumbug is unctuously enacted by Mr . Barrett , whose business is to thwart the Joves of the lovelorn Wilt and her mortal swain . Of tho ladies who take these , characters the former does all that may become a ballerina of ambition and promise , and the latter all that tho most sanguine well-wisher of such an interesting vocalist could demand . The parodies , got up after the fashion of the day , by the witty authors , and sung by tho latter lady , are prettily chosen , neatly
executed , and . much applauded / while sundry pas de fascination by the graceful JLydia are seductive enough to catch the heart of , many a young , and perchance , too , old sybaris . It * wore ro ^ retable , if tho season ' s success— -so creditable to tho good taste , sound judgment , iind hard work of Messrs . Chatterton & Willott , the lessoea—wore to be jeopardised by the recurrent indisposition of Mr . Leigh Murray , who was unfortunately unable to perform his part in " London 1 ' ritlo" on Wednesday evening ; but wo are glad , as wo were prepwed , to hour that arrangements aro not impossible for filling the void thus occasioned ,
Sussex Hai ^ . —On Tuesday a locturo on tho writings and g & nius of Eliza Cook , interspersed with soloct readings from tho works , of tlio poetess , was given by Mrs . H . Thomas . Tho lecturess gave a fair but eulogistic summary of tho qualities of this favourite sung writer , and read " Tho Old Clock , " "The Dying 01 < l Man to his Young Wlfu , " and eo-veral othur places with groat fooling and effect . She also gavo several ancdUotea of Miss Oook , which told well with the nudionooj and altogether yfQ may say that we have aoldom hoard a lecture of tho kind more judiciously arranged , and more pleasantly rooitod .
