      JTJLLIEN'S CONCERTS . ROYAL LYCEUM THEATRE . ? .. PROSPECTUS . Monsieur JULLIEN'S TWENTIETH and LAST ANNUAL SERIES of CONCERTS will commence oil MONDAY , the 1 st of November , and continue for one month , being given as Monsieur JULLIEN'S FAREWELL , or " CONCERTS D'ADIEU , " previous to his departure on his Universal Musical Tour through the capitals and cities of Europe , America , Australia , the Colonies , and civilised towns of Asia and Africa , accompanied by the elite of his orchestra and other artists , savants , and homines dc lettrcs , forming the nucleus of a society already constituted under the title of " Society de l'Harmonie Universelle , " with the object not only of diffusing the divine and civilising art of music , but of promoting , through harmony ' s powerful eloquence , a noble and philanthropic cause . In taking leave of this great country of order ,, liberty , justice , and progress , Mons . Jullicv fears that it will be impossible for him to express in an advertisement the deep feeling of gratitude and attachment which overpowers his heart , when he calls to mind the kind hospitality extended to him by . the people of Great Britain , and the long and uninterrupted patronage bestowed iipon his endeavours to advance musical art in the United . Kingdom . Mons . Jullien regrets that through some combination , against which he has been unable to combat , he has not succeeded in obtaining one of the larger theatres in which he has hitherto given his Annual Series of Concerts—viz . Drurv Lane , Covent Garden , or Her Majesty ' s Theatreestablishments which may be considered , and are , in fact , better adapted for the accommodation of his patrons ; but this very deficiency of space Mons . Jullien lias sought to turn to advantage by selecting for the present season virtuosi of European reputation , and vocalists of the highest talents and renown , and toy allowing only the elite of his orchestra to perform—thus making up for quantity by quality , and endeavouring thereby to realise the dream of Beethoven , who said , " Mou rove du beau pour l * ex < $ cutioii de mes symphonies e ' esfc un orclicstre de GO . " Froln the great master himself we here learn that his symphonies were composed for only sixty performers , and , in fact , many circumstances have ' sho \ ru < that by doubling the parts , Whether of string or wind instruments , the orchestra has lost that perfect balance in the relative power of combined sounds which it is essential should be strictly proportioned for the perfect rendering of maiiy melodies , harmonies , and passages , called , in counterpoint , imitations and fugati . Under these circumstances , Mous . Jullien can assure the public that he has spared no effort to render the Concerts at the Royal Lyceum Theatre as attractive as the first series which he gave in the same establishment in the year 1 S 41-2 . - , . The immense progress which musical art has made in England , within the last 20 years has encouraged Mons . Jullieu to compose the first part of his performances chiefly of classical works . As in the caso' of those festivals which he first introduced in England wider the title of " Nights , " dedicated to one or other of the great masters , a great portion of the lirst part Will be devoted to tho music of . Beethoven , Mozart , Mendelssohn , Haydn , &c . This idea Mous . Jullien had entertained for the last live years , having become personally convinced that England was rapidly earning the title of a great musical country . Now , at last , he feels gratified to announce that this season the lirst part of his programmes will present a selection of a far higher order of music than hitherto , and will include important works of Mozart , Beethoven , Mendelssohn , and other great composers , ancient and modern , which have not previously been performed at these concerts . Among these may bo mentioned tho masterpiece of Beethoven , tho Ninth Symphony , commonly known as tho - CHORAL SYMPHONY , composed to Sohiller ' ^ grand pocin , "Tho Ode to Joy , " celebrating tho union of all nations in ono joyful concord ; Mendelssohn ' s celebrated " LOHGJliSANG , " or Hymn of Praise ; and Gregory the First's " CANTO FEltMO" and "FUGA FUGARUM . " concluding with tho " JlYxMN of UNIVERSAL HARMONY . " Tho SECOND PAltT of tho 3 ' ROGRAMME will be MISCELLANEOUS , and will bring forward in review thoso original compositions and arrangements of Mons , Jullien which have received tjio largest share of public approbation during his musical career in England ; also his i latest orchestral productions , which have uov ' or been performed by his orchestra in London , but aro now ( juito the voguo in Franco and Germany . Among tho latter may bo cited "Fern Leaves " Valso ; '' The Campbells nro comin '" Quadrille ; " Los Fcuillcsd'Autonino" Valsc ; " Tho Frikcll" . Galop ; A Now "Chinese Quadrille ; " and "La Grnndo Marcho des Nations , xt Progros dos Civilisations , " com- x posod on tho authentic National Hymns of every country , and descriptivo of tho convocation and assembly of tho Universal CoiiKross , elected by every reigiihm monarch , every established government , and qvery nation cf tho j world , united iu ono peaceful confederation by the powers of harmony . Mons . JULLIEN is most happy to stnto that among the ' ¦ artists who will appear during his faro well season ho is - enabled to announce tho name of tho celebrated , violinist WJMNJAWMKIV who In Fraaco , Germany , ltnsala , nnd Italy has established ono of tho greatest reputations ainco g tho appearance of that marvellous geniim , Pnguniui .
