Wednesday musical entertainments was given at Exeter
Hall, with marked success. The programme opened with
.
Beethoven's grand orchestral symphony (No. 1) C,
which was admirably executed; and an attractive selec-
tion from Le Proplate followed. M. Thalberg was ex-
tremely successful in his fantasia on airs from Rossint'e
Donna del Lago, and, on being recalled, delighted his
hearers by fresh proofs of his mastery over all the re-
sources of the instrument, of which he is so eminent a
professor. Hoer Ernst, too, excited perfect enthusiasm,
by his exquisite violin performances. The vocal selec-
tion was altogether pleasing and well varies, and the in
strumental portiens cf the concert were admirable. The
hall was fully attended.
