WEDNESDAY EVENING CONCERTS.

The selection provided for the patrons of the concert
illast night was of a mixed character. Certain brief
eltracts from the Zaubollote and Maritana were the
Pieces put most prominently forward in the bills. The
engagement of Miss Louisa Pyne secured a brilliant per-
Mrrnance of the great aria of the Queen of Night, the
celebrated " Gli angui d'infernio." One of the charming
terzettos was essayed by Miss M. Wells, Miss J.
e 39, and Miss Thirlwall; and the fine air, " Qui sdegno '
Zras rendered with portentous gravity by Mr. Lawler.
"W• Harrison, who had been announced to sing
the beautiful song, " 0 cara imagine," gave instead the
"813i110 gentil" of Donizetti. The former pieces, and the
overture, Which were carefully played, constituted the
extracts from the Zauberfiote. The selections from the
PPillar opera of Wallace's were confined to the two
Songs, "There is a flower" and " Scenes that are
brightest," devolving upon Mr. Harrison and Miss
onisa 1337f1e, and a third morceau by Miss Wells. In
e Course of the first part of the concert Mr. W. G-.
earns contributed an able interpretration of Mr. Stern-
de Bennett's pianoforte concerto in F minor, a work
demanding executancy of the best, and taste the most
refine,,
Miss Thirlwall sang the " Voi the sapete" of
Mozart in an agreeable manner ; and Alice's well-known
13" g in Robert le Diable, 6` Quando lascia, la Nor-
111,andia,” fell into the satisfactory hands of Miss Louisa
4.
Beethoven's first symphony was the principal
Instrumental performance. Herr Lutz conducted.
