MUSICAL FESTIVAL

Btssttxorary FiIDAT 1110/ILKING.
The concert last evening was even more nume-
rously attended than on Welneaday. The pieces seiected
were of the usual miscellaneous character; but the great
attraction of this concert was the performance of Beat-
hoves's grand choral symphony in D miner. It need
sesroely be remarked that the getting up of anformaaor
of this composition Is attended with many dities; the
labour required is of a most arduous character, so much so
that the attempt hes been seldom made, even in London,
and never betore at any provincial assembly, a feet which
speaks very mash in praise of all concerned in the
arrangements for this festival. Of this great
work, which has been commented on and criticised
aqui ad nauseous we shall my very little. During this
performance its beauties appeared as beautiful as ever, and
its obscurities somewhat less obscure, It having been per-
formed with admirable accuracy and clearness. The in-
strumental portion (as hes always been the ease) was the
most successful in point of execution; the choral portion
being written with so little regard for the powen and asps-
bilities of the human voice that it is physically impossible to
produce the effects intended by the composer. Neverthe-
less, it had a great effect, and made a strong impreseion on
the audience.

In the course of the performance of the selected pieces,
Derr Formes sang Moran's beautiful air, " In diesen heel--
gen Italica," which atfurds full scope for the mellow tones
of his rich voice • be gave it in his invariable style of excel-
lence. Mdlle. Anna Zen., whose briniest execution has
made her quite a favourite here, got an encore in • pretty
German ballad, "A Stiiiussli willi Midair." Mill M.
Williams was encored in one of Land's pretty ballads.
Madam] Viardot Garcia sang very sweetlytbe "Alt non
credea " of the " Sonnatemla ;" and Mr. Weiss gave with
great effect Maefarren's flee air, from "Don Quixote,"
"When Bacchus invented the bowl." Madams Clans
Novello and Signor Tamberlik sang favourite airs, and •
brilliantly executed solo by Signor Bottesini on the double
bar was one of the gems of this the last evening concert of
the Festival.

FILIDA.T EVINIXO.

The work which Handel wrote under the pleasantest
auspices, when--sitting upon a hill retired—he had sur-
mounted every difficulty, and found himself hailed as the
greatest of musicians, was "Samson." This was the
oratorio selected for performane• this morning; and certainly
• better selection wild not have been made. As now pre-
sented, the oratorio is pruned of some of its weakest parts, re-
duced to its proper dimensions, and fmns • dramatic poem
(notwithstanding its blemishes) of strong interest and sur-
passing power. Then the story of the Jewish hero—his be-
trayal and captivity—the picture of vengeance and death,
nothing can be sadder, or more grandly poetical and vivid.
It is to Mr. Costa, the gifted conductor of this festival, that
we owe the form which Samson has now assumed. He has
taken Mond for his model, and enriched the score with

accompaniments, and his scrupulous devotion to the text
satisfy the most devoted of Handel's worshippers. To the
overture, which has already two oboes and two horns, in
addition to the stringed instruments, Mr. Costa has made
an addition, with an evident anxiety not to impair the
clearness of its counterpoint. The opening chorus of the
priests of Dagoo, whose bold and martial character Handel
himself indicates by the introduction of drums and trum-
pets, is wonderfully strengthened and enriched by Mr.
Costa, who calls into action the entire resources of a modern
orchestra. It is unnecessary for us to enter into any elabo-
rate review of the performance of this oratorio to-day,
because the efficiency of the entire orchestra, so fully tested
during the last three days, is a sufficient guarantee that it
would receive the fullest justice ; a few points, however,
suggest themselves as demanding notice. The opening
overture was magnificently played, and the holiday re-
citative of Samson rejoicing at the "solemn feat"
was very gracefully delivered by Mr. Sins Reeves. The
air of the Philistine woman, " Ye men of Gaza," was sung
by Madame Clara Novelle : this, to which Handel has only
given a guartett of stringed instruments, has been beauti-
fully reuforeed by the flute*, elarionets, and bassoons,
which it was evident from the performance to-day has greatly
enhanced its expression as well as its beauty. Mr. Reeves
gave the beautifully pathetic air, " Total eclipse," with
great effect: in it Handel accompanies only by the violins
in unison and basses: this has been enriched by Mr. Costa
with parts for second violins, tenors, elarionets, and bas-
soons, which has done even more than enhance its expres-
sion. The grand air, " Why does the God of Israel sleep I"
was also very effectively given by Mr. Reeves with the ad-
ditional accompanying parts for viola, oboes, clarionets,
and bassoons. The grand chorus, " Then round about
the starry throne," which remains as Handel left
it, was splendidly performed. The opening recita-
tive and air of Micah," in the second part—" Re-
tarn, 0 God of Hosts!"—was sung with much feeling by
Miss Dolby, as indeed was the dialogue throughout be-
tween Samson and Delils (Sims Reeves end Madame Clara
Novillo); the supplicating chorus of virgins was very hap-
pily given—sever, perhaps, with fluor effect. The recita-
tive of Memphis, on entering with the Philistines, was
very finely given by Herr Formes, whose elocution was good
throughout. In the succeeding air--" Honour and Arms,
which Handel has accompanied very slightly, we have
further evidence of Mr. Costa's charming additions. These
consist of flutes, horns, elarionets, and bemoans, imparting
to the original a wonderful degree of richness and beauty
this is Mr. Costa's most masterly performance, though he
has added another very beautiful piece of descriptive sym-
phony immediately before the distant cry which
announces the catastrophe, for which the mind
is prepared by the chromatic wailing of the
oboe and flutes, giving the impression that something
dreadful is at hand. The entire of the highly
dramatic and intensely interesting portion of the second
part of the oratorio was well done throughout, the effect
being altogether of the most exciting character. Mr. Weiss
sustained his very arduous part very effectively ; he sang
with exquisite taste the air of Manoab, " How willing my
paternal love ;" the opening strains of the melody ee-
'na remarkable
y with pathos and beauty of expression. The
recitatives after the entry of the Israelitish messenger were
delivered with great purity and good taste ; in feet, nothing
could have been better than his singing throughout the
oratorio. Madame Viardot Garcia sing the fine air, "Ye
sons of Israel," with charming sweetness, the noble presi-
dent calling fur au encore ; but before his lordship's baton
was seen by the conductor, the solemn dirge of the
Israelites we. over, and the band had commenced playing
" the March ;" at its conclusion Madame Garcia again sang
the air, producing if possible a more thrilling effect. Ma-
dame Clara Novell° gave the air " Let the bright sera-
phim," effectively and artistically. Lord Leigh again
called for an moon, and the audience gave a remarkable
proof of their pleasure in a very unusual manner at these
festivals—they gave a hearty round of applause.
All the choruses were admirably done, especially the
grand double one. The noble but simple final thorns,
" Let their celestial concerts all unite," has been strength.
ened by Mr. Costa so as to embeace the whole power of the
orchestra. The effect of this was felt in its increased gran-
deur as performed to-day.
With this oratorio the musical part of the festival termi-
nated. By " particular desire," the National Anthem was
given at the end of the performance, Madame Clara No-
vello singing the air ; and then the audience greeted Mr.
Costa with the heartiest and most highly-deserved applause.
The hall, contrary to expectation, was again capitally
tined. The repel is at last evening's eoncert were
10011. 9s. ; and at this morning's performance, including
donations, 1,7261. 18s. 4d.
