DESCRIPTION.
INTRODUCTION.—The Scene takes place in a Mountain District
of Switzerland at Daybreak.—Perfect
Stillness reigns around, broken only by
the Chirping of the Birds, and the distant
Village Bell, calling the Peasants to their
Morning Devotions.
No. I.—The Hunters sally forth in pursuit of the Chamois, and
the Song of the Mountain Shepherds mingles with the
Confusion of the Chase; the Rifles are heard, and the
Success of the Day is proclaimed.
No. 2.—NATIONAL AIR, "LE CHALET." Dialogue for Bas-
soon, Trombone, and Cornet, performed by M. BAU-
MANN, Sig. CIOPPI, and Herr KCENIG.

No. 4.—NATIONAL AIR, " AUX RIVES DU LAC." Arranged
with Variations for Flute, Flageolet, and Clarionet,
performed by Mr. RICHARDLON, MOns. COLLINET,
and Mr. LAZARUS.
No. s.—Village Fete.—The Sun sets and Night comes on.—The
thunderlike noise of the Avalanche in the distance
interrupts the Fete and warns the Villagers of the near
approach of this awful Visitation.—The Terror of the
People increases with the Violence of the Tempest,
and the Convulsion of the Elements as last detaches
the Overhanging Avalanche, and with an Awful Crash
it hounds down the Mountain Side.—The Village Bell
rings, a Shout resounds through the Valley and the
Joyous Chorus of the assembled Villagers announces
their Escape from the Threatened Danger.
