OrERA Hottsi.7—Thc Annual Concert for the
benefit of the New Musical Fund took place,
this Theatre, on Thursday The'first Aft
consisted of? a Seleflion from HAY ON'S grand
Oraterio, entitled Creation, a work of ewaor_
dinary merit, and which only wants to be:thore
familiar to. the Public ear; to'h-e-very popular.
This Piece was extremely -well' supported by
BARTL EMAI4, Mrs. SECOND, •and.Madame'Dos-
hitt, as well as-MELO, the latter of whom 'was
the substitute for HARRISON, who, unforutrititely
for the Audience, as well as, him Self, 'Was pre-
vented froth performink by Sudden indisposition.
At the end of this Aft a new violin Performer
named Fit'AENEL, for the' firit time appeared
before an English Audience.- fir is "a first-tate
Performer ; his style resembles that of Viorrt,
though in his last movement he seemed to imitate
the manner of GI o NOV ICH t. His tone is full,
strong and clear. His double stops Were executed
with the utmost facility and• precision. His
music S,eCIDS rather calculated to chew the:diffi-
culties than the beauties of the Art. He in.
traduced Srottaxes charming. air 6.; Peaceful
Slumbling on the Ocean,". but his Variations were
unappropriate, and the Alt was oddly jumbled
with a quick movement., He was much. applauded.
The Second Aft was, a...Seleftion from The
Met:ink. The Band was led by CRAM ERi and
the orchestra was supplied by a very numerous
train. of distinguish Performers. The. Concert
WAS much better attended than is usual :with such
entertainments as are subservient to the purposes.
