ROYAX ITALIAN OPERA , COVENT GARDEN . M . JUiLIEN ' S CONCERTS . NEXT FRIDAY , DECEMBER 29 th , 1854 . M JULLIEN has the honour to announce that , although it had been his intention , as in former years , to have limited the period of his Concerts to one short series , a variety of circumstances have , this season , induced him to depart from his accustomed practice . The great success which has invariably attended these Entertainments has increased this year to such an enormous extent that it would really appear as if the omission of the last year ' s Concerts , in consequence of M . Juixien ' s absence in America , had , instead of diminishing-, added , in an extraordinary degree , to their popularity , and , indeed , as if the Public—deprived for one season of their favourite amusement—had , during the next , flocked towards it with a twofold eagerness . M . JtriLiEif , in fact , during his late series of Concerts at Drury Lane Theatre , on many occasions , found it quite impossible to accommodate the numbers of persons who presented themselves for admissionthis great anxiety to attend the Concerts not being confined to one class alone , but extending itself to the mass of persons visiting the Promenade , a 3 well as to the occupants of the Dress Circle and Private Boxes . —M . Jtjmjien trusts this great success is not solely attributable to any one of the special attractions which he had provided , for this year ' s Concerts , for , unprecedented as has been the enthusiasm evinced at every performance of the " Allied Armies * Quadrille , " the great piece de resistance of the . season , and several other portions of the Programme , lie hopes that the increased popularity of his Concerts may be fairly regarded as an evidence of a more widely spread taste for the works of the Great Masters , as well as a rapid and progressive aptitude in the mind of the Public generally for the appreciation and enjoyment of the better class of Musical Entertainments . Under these circumstances , and in accordance with the wishes and adyiceof many of M . Jullien ' sPatrons andFriends , he determined to endeavour , if possible , to arrange a second short series of Concerts this season . The great difficulty , however ^ which at once presented itself , was the finding a building affording such increased space as it might fairly be supposed would be sufficient to accommodate a large additional number of Visitors . In this difficulty M . Jttibien sought the assistance of the Directors of the Royal Italian Opera , Covent Garden , their Theatre being the only one at all likely to afford the accommodation required ; and it is with very great gratification , he is enabled to state that the Directors , entering at once into his views , have , in the most handsome manner , placed their magnificent establishment entirely at his disposal , and thus rendered him most valuable aid in his efforts still more widely to cultivate the popular musical taste . M . JuJLUEir has , therefore , the honour to announce that the SECOND SERIES OF CONCERTS will commence on FRIDAY , DECEMBER 29 th ; and it will be seen that , popular as they have proved to bo , he has not relied entirely for the amusement of his Audience , on the novelties of the last Series of Concerts , but has provided , though at a very large cost , great additional attraction . He has entored into an engagement with MADAME PLEYEL , the most celebrated Pianiste in Europe , to perform , for a limited number of nights . He has also entered into an engagement with that most distinguished performer on the Violin , HERB ERNST , for the purpose of executing the Classical Works of the ereat Masters . MADAME ANNA THILLON , whoso Charming Vocal Performance has received , nightly , such unanimous marks of approbation , is re-engaged for the whole Series . SIGNOR HOTTESINI , who is daily expected from America , will appear immediately 911 his arrival . HERR KCBNIG is also engaged . The above Artists , in addition to thoso already forming M . Juixien ' s Unrivalled Orchestra , will constitute a most unprecedented combination , of Talent . It is M . Jdi-lien ' s intention to repeat , with additional attractions , the Evenings of the BEETHOVEN" and MENDELSSOHN FESTIVALS , and also for the first time to give a CONCERT consisting entiroly of the Works of MOZART . Meyerbeer ' s colobrated STRUENSEE ( the Complete Work ) will bo performed ; also a Selection arranged for full Orchestra , from Rossini ' s Opora , LE COMTE ORY ; a Selection arranged for full Orchestra , from . Verdi ' s New Opora , R 1 GOLETTO ; a Selection for full Orchestra , from Spoor ' s Classical Opera JliSSONDA , & c . & e . In order to contributo to tho amusement of the many JUVENILE VISITORS whom M . Jullien liqpes to sec at his Concerts during tho CHRISTMAS HOLIDAYS , ho has composed a now Comic Quadrille , entitled tho PANTOMIME QUADRILLE Tho NEW ISLKIGII POLKA , describing , with some curious and novel oH ' oots , slodgo-driving in . Amorica , will also be produced . The NEW GRA ^ TD ALLIED ARMIES' QUADRILLE , assisted by tho THREE MILITARY BANDS of HISU MAJESTY'S GUARDS , which has created such unparalleled enthusiasm , will bo porformod on tho First Night , and on every evening until furthor notice , Tho nightly programmo will , in fact , present an unequalled variety and excellence . Tho whole aroa of this magnificent Theatre—tho audienco portion aa well as the stage—will bo converted into one IMMENSE SALLE , andoxhibit an entirely now and tasteful decoration , tho wholo being carpotou , warmed , and ventilated . At the back of the Promonado will bo frnindi THE READING ROOM , Containing Nowspapors and Periodicals from almost all parts of tho world , including Six London Morning X ' npora , Vivo Evening Papers , Fll ty-six WooUly PapoTs , and 1 ' wonty 1 ' rovinolal Paiibrs ; besides tho Irish , Scotoli , Gorlunn , American , Italian , Swiss , Dutch , Indian , Chinese , Australian , Now Zealand , Malta , Portuguese , Ionian , Canadian , Frunoli , Belgian , and Spanish Newspapers , Magazines , and olhur Periodicals .
