NEW MUSIC AND THE DRAMA, 
——— 
Fantuisie et Variations sur VAir fa- 
vori, “ Au clair de la Lune,” pour le 
Forte-Piano; composées par Ignace 
Moscheles. Gs. 
E fiad in this publication twenty 
pages of excellent piano-forte 
music. ir. Moscheles has given to 
the above-named. air no fewer than 
six variations, the greater part of 
which are happy expatiations on the 
chosen theme. -'The passages are vo- 
latile and florid, and evince as much 
command of novelty as could be justly 
expected under the circumstance of 
being confined to an adopted subject. 
In the introductory movement, (neces- 
sarily original,) the composer has 
evinced the freedom and extent of his 
imagination. Its general texture is 
not only truly scientific, but highly 
fanciful. The ideas seek each otier 
with an easy rapidity,,.and, mixing 
sweetness with their brilliancy,, and 
beauty with their modulation, are qua- 
lified to gratify all classes of hearers. 
“And they're a’ noddin,” a favourite 
Scotch Ballad; arranged with Varia- 
tions for the Piano-forte, by D. Corri, 
composer of “the Travellers,” §c. 2s. 
This publication includes two copies 
of the above air. The first gives it in 
its origmal simple form, accompanied 
with the words, as sung by Miss Ste- 
phens; the second presents it as a 
piano-forte practice, consisting of the 
plain, unembellished melody, followed 
by six variations, progressional in their 
execution, and calculated to please 
and improve those who are desirous of 
blending the gratification of the ear 
with the advancement of manual exe- 
cution. 
Six Themes, with brilliant Variations ; 
composed in a pleasing style, as Solos 
for the Flite, by W. Gabrielshy. 4s. 
Of the theme on which these varia- 
tions are founded, we cannot speak in 
the highest terms. It lacks that spirit 
and yivacity of character which the 
announcement of “ brilliant variations” 
led us to expect. Nevertheless, the 
variations themselves are all they pro- 
fess to be; and, while they offer eligible 
exercise for the practitioner, promise 
no small pleasure to his ear.. They 
are judiciously diversified, launch into 
every style of execution, and, if duly 
studied, will scarcely fail of producing 
an improved power of performance.
