HENRI HERz.-The reception which this great drtfsfe
has met with at his previous concerts, would seem TO
show that the attraction Of his own talent would be
sufficient to CRAFTY the musical taste Of community
but learn that at his concert Tuesday evening
next entertainment novel and delightful will be
offered. A piece will be performed upon eight grand
pianos by sixteen of the best pansts now in our city,
including NJ. Herr himself, Messrs. Timm, Fontana
Scharfenburgh, and Loder. Though these concerted
pieces ofmusc for several pianos have been
performed in Europe, this is the first time believe,
that opportunity has been offered to citizens of
hearing them and that they will be done adequate JUS
tce to- guaranteed by the of those engaged to
assist NJ. Herr Madame Pico is also engaged and will
sing of her favorite arias. The Tabernacle on
Tuesday will without doubt present scene equal to
that the occasion Of NJ Herzs last concert which
noticed yesterday.
