Musical Entertainments at Minerva Hall

Musical Entertainment at Minerva Hall.
The first grand musical entertainment
this season of the young amateurs of New
Orleans, pupils of Professor NJ. Hoefner,
| came off last Wednesday evening at Minerva
Hall in the presence of large and select
number of the devotees of Orpheus. This
handsome little temple Of the muses., To-
Gated on Clio street, never looked better
than on the occasion referred to, and the
young amateurs, assisted by young ladies
! of talent in vocal and instrumental music,
succeeded in giving most pleasing exhibi-
ton.
The first part of the entertainment com
menced with the first movement in Kuf-
ner's second symphony, by the entire or
chestra, consisting Of Masters E. Born, n.
Gerson, William Lachs, G. S. Stiff, L.
Bloom, A.. Haase, G. Lagan, G. Benjamin,
G. Haase. L. Lehman, assisted by a number
of professional gentlemen. The perfect
execution of this masterpiece Of music by
the scholars Of Professor Hoefner evinced
the high degree of proficiency to which
they had attained under his patient instruc-
tons.
This was followed by grand. trio, for
violin, piano and alto (by Fesca) executed
by Miss C. Haase, and Masters Charles and
A. Haase. The splendid manner in which
this difficult piece Of music was performed
was most gratifying to the highly discrimi-
mating connoisseurs Of music present upon
this occasion. These young artistes were
followed by Master William Lachs, who
executed solo on the violin in the most ex-
quisite manner.
Tie part assigned Miss Z. Stubenrauch,
young lady gifted with sweet voice that
has been cultivated with care, was not per-
formed. in consequence OF a sudden cold
which she had contracted, and which pre-
vented her from executing the task as
signed her This was no fault of hers,
though it was disappointment to many
who had heard the young lady sing and
were anxious to enjoy that pleasure again.
! The remainder of the programme, how
ever, which consisted Of instrumental music,
was sufficiently attractive to give most
pleasing conclusion to the musical enter
tainment of the evening.
The extraordinary proficiency exhibited
by the scholars of Professor Hoeffner upon
this occasion-an Of them juyeniles-does
him great credit, and must add to his al
ready well known reputation as musical
teacher.
When themusical entertainment was con,
Guided the brilliant party Of the concert
saloon was suddenly transformed into a
dancing party, and the terpsichorean plea
sures continued until the "wee small hours
Of the night" admonished the gay and fes-
tive pleasure seekers that it was time to go
| home.
The select nature of these entertainments,
and the delightful amusement they are cal
culated to afford to the lovers of music and
dancing, lead US to believe that they would
become popular if the professor should con
clude to continue them.
