M. Calzado has issued his programme for the
Italian season, which, however, does not commence
for five weeks to come, namely, Ist October. The sty
principal singers are Mmes. Alboni, Penco, Battu ; Bt(
Messrs. Mario, Gardoni, Badiali, Graziani, Zuc- stl
ehini, Angellini, and Pancani, the last of whom is
the only novelty in the list. He is said to be a tenor 1.
of merit. Negotiations are said to be pending with
st,
other vocalists of distinguished celebrity, and we st,
must do M. Calzado the justice to say that while st
other directors are complained of for not fulfilling st
tha promises of their programmes, he every season
engages eminent artistes not named in his opening
catalogue. We shall give the list of the proposed st
novelties for the season on a future day. st
The Odeon opens on the Ist September for the
winter season. Report speaks highly of the new
comedy by M. Bouilhet, to be called, " Le Million
du Pere Etienne."

Mine. Carvalho, Mme. Viardot, and M. Battaille
are engaged at the Lyrique for the ensuing season.
A piece with the piquant title of " Les Rifle-
women ou Les Volontaires femmes d'Angleterre,"
has been received at the Theatre Beaumarchais.
The celebrated Mme. Sanchioli has been lately
giving concerts associated with the violinist Baz-
zini at Havre with immense success.
The rehearsals of " Leaa are now pro-
ceeding with activity at the Grand Opera. M.
Richard Wagner has arrived to superintend them.
At Milan the adventures of Garibaldi are made
the subject of a military ballet, in which the
heroic leader dances and wields his sabre amid
the almost frantic plaudits of the public. This is
truly an Italian mode of rendering honour to
their heroes.
The Italian journals are filled with accounts of
the successes of a new musical star, Mine. Galetti,
who, from all descriptions, appears to be the genuine
successor of Pasta and Malibran. Her voice is said
to possess a power of reaching the feelings unknown
in our day, while her acting is incomparable. Her
last character at Brescia was " Norma," which is
described by the papers as creating an enthu-
siasm quite unprecedented in the musical
city since the days of Pasta. After the opera
her health was drunk in the principal cafés
as the Prima Norma del Mond() Making
due allowance for the exuberance of 'ltalian
superlatives, there appears no doubt that Mme.
Galetti is really a great singer and actress. She is
engaged for the next season at La Scala.
Several Italian journals have announced the
assassination of Vieustemps, the violinist, at Stock-
holm, which luckily turns outs to be as untrue as
the death of Rubinstein, th
ers. e pianihe st, r
atter has d some
time since by the same pap T j
composed an opera for Berlin.
Sivori, who is at present at Baden, has produced
among the dilletante there a marvellous effect by a
new fantasia executed by himself at the concerts,
called " Les folks d'Espagne."
