ST. JAMES'S MALL--MR. KUHE'S CONCERT.
Mr. Kuhe's grand annual concert, which is invariably re-
garded as one of the great events of the musical season,
took place yesterday afternoon, and attracted a large bril-
liant, and fashionable audience. The programme was a most
extraordinary one, as it embraced the names of Mdlle
Christine Nilsson, Madame Monbelli, Mdlle. Carols, Madame
Florence Lancia, Mdlle. Liebhart, Miss Edith Wynn,
Madame Trebellilßettini, Madame Lemmens-Sherrington,
Madame Patey, Madame Sinico, Signors Mongini, Foli,
Castelli, Waldeck, Bettini, Mr. Santley, Vernon Rigby, and
other eminent artistes. It would be an impossibility to par.
ticularise every piece sung, although each deserved the
highest commendation ; so we must content ourselves by
singling out some that call for special notice;
and first in order, as in talent, amongst the vocalists, we
must place the pieces rendered by Mdlle. Nilsson. In
the first part, although each of the preceding artistes had
gained very great applause, the honour of an encore was
positively forced upon this accomplished artiste, for Verdi's
aria from " Traviata," "Ah forse d lui, and certainly
nothing could have been more perfect. Tho applause was
universal and so enthusiastic that it only remained for
Mdlle. Nilsson to app ar again, but in place of giving the
aria she substituted for it one of her delicious native melodies,
which positively enchanted the entire audience. Mdme.
and Sig. Bettini we must next compliment for the duet, "Si
la stenchezza.," from " Trovatore :" and here, again, we can
only say the combined efforts of these two highly
accomplished musicians were 'welly so fine that
nothing better could be desired. Mdme. MouLelli
gave " Come per me sereno " in the most ar-
tistic manner, and Mdlle. Natalie Carola sang a German
song, " Berglied," with great sweetness. Mdme. Sherring-
ton gave the "Ode to St. Cecilia" with the taste of a true
artiste, and Signor Foli a new song by Reyloff, "Fireside
Dreams," which is destined certainly to become a great
favourite. " The Spinning Wheel," quartette, from "Martha,"
by Mdmes. Nilsson, Trebelli-Bettini, Signor Bettiui, and Mr.
Santley, was superbly rendered, and Miss Edith Wynn
must be complimented for a song by Randegger, " Only for
One." The trio, from "Guillaume Tell," by Signors Mongini,
Foli, and Mr. Santley called for great applause, and Signor
Verger gave Mattel's Romance, "Non o ver," with taste
and effect. Mr. Santley's solo was amew song by
Molloy, " The Wandering Jew," and from the applause with
which it was received it will frequently be heard in the
concert room Amongst the instrumental performances
Signor riatti's solo for the violoncello was much enjoyed,
as also was the duo for violoncello and pianoforte, which he
played with Mr. Kulie. Mr. Kull° performed on the piano
" Will o' the Wisp" and "Etude de Concert," both his own
compositions, and it is almost needless to say that the splendid
manager in which each was executed elicited the most raptu-
rous applause. The first piece was a succession of the most
brilliant and sparkling harmony, but the latter was a perfect
triumph of artistic skill, and henceforth it will be placed high
amongst the many compositions which this accomplished
musician has contributed to the pianofoite. We must com-
press our further remarks almost into one sentence, and
therefore we can only ;ay the concert was of the highest
order from beginning to end, and gave the most unbounded
pleasure to one of the largest audi 'ices that has yet assem-
bled in the St. James's Hall.

The conductors were Mr. Benedict, Signor Arditti, W.
Ganz, Pinsuti, and Randegger.
