MUSIC.

We have had an opportunity of witnessing the performance of
Mr. Kulenstein on the instrument commonly called the Jew's beep.
It is certainly a musical curiosity, combining beauty of monad
with brilliancy of ezecution, in a manner hardly conceivable to
those who would judge from the apparent capabilities of so trilling
end insignificant an instrument. The sound produced by Mr. En.
lenstein has a great resemblance with that of the &lien harp, but
it is softer, and far more agreeable to the ear. Be uses some 10 eel
SO which are lying before him, always performing or. two or four
at a time, and changing them according to the degree of ascent or
descent of a passage, with a rapidity which occasion' no perceptible
interruption. Theeztent of his scale is from the lowest C to the
first E above the lines, thus embracing four octaves and two firma.
Each of his instruments is made subservient to seven notes, so that
he has acquired a facility which enables him to execute almost
kind of music, even with an accempanhnent. The selected
by Mr. Ealenatein on this occasion were the Di tend palpid, with
four variations by himself, a sonata of Mozart, and several opera
airs of RossinL In the lest named performance be ran over star.'
cato, legato, and chromatic passers, with a distinctness, precision,
and rapidity, truly surprising. A slow movement in the sonata
was performed as a quartet with the complete harmony of the four
corresponding notes. Mr. Enlenstehi, we understand, has been his
own instructor on this singular instrument, and to him, in fact, the
merit of &coveting, as well as of bringing out the great powers of
which it is capable, appears to be exclusively due.
Under the title of 771. Peninnder Melodies, a musical work
has been recently published, professing to embrace every thing of a
striking character belonging to the 'national vocal music of Spain
and Portugal. The poetry has been nhiefly supplied by Ds. Sow. I
ring, Mrs. Hemans, and Mrs. Norton. In his preface, the compiler
states that during a long residence in the peninsula, he bas boss at
the trouble of collecting the musical materials which he has adapted
to the English words from every province where a distinct style
of
melody was to be traced. In the Ii pieces of which the fret book
consists, however, we find nothing of a very characteristic kind.)
There are some simple and pretty melodies, but they remind usl
strongly of the style of nag prevalent in Italy sane 900 or WA
years age. The second book conveys a most correct notion of duo
style yet predominant in Spain. The greater part of the pieces of
which it is made up are. it is said in the preface, of Maria=
