The Haydn Concert.
The prologue of Fridolin gave an opportunity
to display the excellent training of the associa.
ton in chorus which on this occasion was of
sixty-five voices.
IA pious youth was Fridolin,
Who served the Lord with zeal,
Aud did his duty faithfully
Come thereby woe or veal.
For this when subtle foe conspired
And sought DER him to boast,
About his path, in direst need,
Kept guard the angel host.''
Mr.. Morgan as Fridolin did nothing in any
way out of keeping with the high recommend
alton of the prologue. His sweet, clear tenor
was admirably adapted to the part, and rem
dered it with expression marred only by the
diffidence that seems to constrain his voice and
prevent the expression of anything like its full
power. After the song of Fridolin as he placed
flowers on the balcony Of the Countess, Hubert
(Mr j. B. Coyle, jr) devoted him to death in
unmistakable Language, and with an animated
use of his fine bass voice that won him hearty
round of applause.
The hunting chorus was followed by duet
between Hubert and the Count Of Saverne (Mr.
U. IL. Mcclellan, whose voice and manner were
admirably adapted to the part, in which Hubert
persuaded the Count to resolve upon the de-
struction of Fridolin.
Scene commences with the chorus of Hand
maidens, followed by song from the countess
(Mrs. Wetherbee). which was rendered with
the grace and easy control of her fine saprano
voice which characterize her singing. The
duet between the Countess and Fridolin as he
leaves her to go to the furnace into which the
Count had plotted to cast him, which becomes
quaftette at its close is followed by chorus
of villagers and prayer and scena by Fridolin
and the chorus; then a recltative and ballad
by the Count, and duet between the Count
and Countess, in which the perfidy of Hubert
is unmasked. The choIuses, the forge scene,
and final scene, in which Hubert meets the
doom he had prepared for the pious Fridoln,
finishes the epiogue.
The leading feature of interest in this concert
was the choruses, which were throughout rem.
dered with spirit and fneness Of information
that shows the realization of the purpose for
which the Hay dn Association was organized.
The leading parts were in general given with
animation and excellence of rendition, helped
by the fine playing of Miss Blanchard.
3 The audience which filled the hall were en-
thusiastic and were thoroughly pleased with
the entertainment, which in spite of the unfa-
vorable circumstances of weather attending it
was in all points successful.
