THE PASSAGE OF THE RED SEA.

Dedicated, by permission, to JoHN B. LLOYD, Esq.. Mayor.

Subscribers' Names for insertion in the List received by
the Author, 34, Church-street, Liverpool; or Ewer and CO.,

" THE PASSAGE OF THE RED SEA.—Mr. Hackett has been
♦ery successful in the very difficult matter of combining ex-
pression with simplicty; his melodies are sweet and appro-
priate, and in the choruses he has felicitously united gran-
deur of sentiment with expressive harmony."—Slastdard,
July 18.

THE PASSAGE OF THE RED SEA.—The early portion
of the work, of which we have received a proof-sheet, com-
prises a recitative and chorus, followed by an air sweet and
flowing, and charmingly illustrative of the text; then suc-
ceed two recitatives, the latter of a very majestic character,
introducing a very spirited chorus, followed by the prayer
"God of the Poor." This beautiful invocation would alone
stamp the work as one of great merit. The remaining por-
tion of the work only requires to be kept up to the same
standard of excellence, in order to take a position in the
musical vrorldl of which both the composer and his fel-
low-townsmen may be justly proud."—Mereury, Sept. 11.
