MUSIC.
HERR SCHLOEMER'S CONCERT.

This distinguished composer and pianist had a
bnlliant and successful concert at the Hanover-square
Rooms last evening. It consisted of chamber musk, vocal
and instrumental, of a highly classical and refined charac-
ter, and admirably performed. A manuscript quartet by
Hen Schloemer, for the piano, violin, viola, and violoncello,
played by the author, with Moen. Vieuxtemps, Vogel, sad
Piatti, showed Herr Schloemer's powers both as a composer
and pianist of the first order. He played also a nocturne
of Chopin, and Wagner's splendid Muth in Tann-
howler, aa arranged for the piano by Liszt—a
morceau respecting which, whatever may be thought of the
opera, there can be but one opinion. It was received with '
acclamations even by a hostile Parisian audience ; and
Herr Schloemer's vigorous execution gave an excellent idea
of its orchestral effect. A sacred sng, "He that keepeth
Israel," composed by M. Schloemer, anibenely sung by Miss
Parepa, and a beautiful "Aye Maria," also by hun, and
sung by Miss Parepa, Peddle. Behrens, and Signor Gardoui,
were admirable specimens of his genius as a composer. The
latter especially produced a great effect, and was moat
warmly applauded. Beethoven's inimitable "Adelaide,"
charmingly executed by Cambial, with Benedict's masterly
accompeninient, was one of the most delightful things of
the evening ; and solos on the violin and the violoncello
were played, with their usual excellence, by Vieuxtemps
and Piatti. The concert was ably conducted by Mr. Bene-
dict, and was altogether a most elegant and agreeable

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.
