and quote from his best 'lincs," than IL
is to describe piece Of music or quote a
tune. What tho dramatic critics have
done for Harrigan / will endeavor to do
for Braham, and those who are waiting
impatiently for the general publication
of the new music may find here the notes
of several of the most striking airs. By
careful attention one may learn
from this to sing the songs, and
those who are somewhat skilled in ac-
companying, or familiar with the ele-
ments of musical theory, will be able to
invent accomplishments, as the underly-
ing harmonies are in no case unusual, or
the modulations intricats.
AS matter Of Importance to the suc-
cess of Harrigan's plays the Braham
songs cannot be overestimated. They
ment, and it is morally certain that Har-
rigan with all his popularity could not
get on without them. The interest
taken in them by the New York public
is comparable only to the sensation
aroused by a new Sullivan opera. The
crowds a. Sullivan first might and at a
Harrigan- -Braham first-night, are equal:
that is, the theater in either instance is
crowded to its utmost capacity. Braham

must be credited, however, with having
the better of it, for he gives his hearers
| but seven songs TO Sullivan's thirty
or more, and every one of Braham's pieces
are repeatedly encored, catching hearty
appreciation instantly, while some
| of Sullivan's best numbers have to be
heard several times before the devoted
| auditor begins to see the beauty in
them. 1t is generally admitted that
Braham has never hit the popular
taste harder than in the incidental
music to "Reilly's Four Hundred. y
The seven numbers include a song
of the sea, for baritone and chorus
two songs for Mr.. Harrigan, one
tenor waltz song, a chorus without
solo part, negro sailors chorus, and, o.
which poor girl with weak voics
sings of 'dear old mother"
