CARLoTTA PATTI.-No doubt at sunrise on
Tuesday morning next our citizens will be able
to say that within the past fortnight it has
been their good fortune to have heard not only
the best orchestra in the United States, but al
SO the queen vocalist, if the New York Herald
is to be believed. We have always awarded
that high position to Parepa, and it is there
fore with great curiosity and eagerness we
shall await next Monday evening. The Herald
says:
The pick and cLoice of the elite of the city
were present, and SO were the severe critics and
musical dalettdnti; but one and all they ac-
corded to her the credit of using magnificent
voice with wonderful skill. Since the days of
Malibran we have perhaps had no such vocal-
cation on the concert stage. Remarkable as
Jenny Lind was in the use of peculiarly
gifted organ, Patti in many instances equals if
she does not excel her. Lind was called appro-
priately enough the "Swedish Nightingale"
Patti, in her rapid changes and exquisite trlls,
may claim to challenge all the birds of the air,
if it were worth while TO enter into rivalry
with them. In rbe "Luce di Quest Aninaa''
from Linda, she used her voice with a marvel
lous power in her transition from one passage
to another that would have been astonishing
in violin, but in the human voice seemed al
most an impossbility.. The audience recog-
nized this fact and applauded it not only
by overwhelming bravas, but by laying a
perfect garden of fowers-the odor where
of filled the house-at the feet of the fair
cantatrice and an encore, which was responded
to by the Bolero from the " Sicilian YES
pers," rendered most charmingly. In the Car
nival OF Venice" Mile Patti had, perhaps,
finer opportunity OF developing her complete
command of a wonderful voice, which seemed
at times to pass from her as though she had
nothing at all to do with it, but left it to be
governed by some superior power. PATHS sue
cess last night was unequivocal as indeed it
deserved to be. Rarely was an artistic greeted
by so fashionable, refined and critical an audi
ence, and SO fatteringly sustained.
The Herald also says that Mr.. Ritter is a fine
pianist, and Mr.. Prume an excellent violinist.
