Ment is in E flat major, = adagio, and 
poffeffes much grace and expreflion. The 
third and concluding movement, is a 
Rondo, in common time, the fubje& of 
‘which is new, attraétive, and judicioufly 
relieved by the intervening members of 
the rain. The fecond Sonata is in D 
major. and commences with a ftnking 
movement in commen time. allegro con 
{pirito, which is fucceeded by a paftoral 
in §, diftinguithed by fome beautiful and 
elegant ideas ; this is followed by a pol- 
Jaca, allegretto, which is conduéted with 
a fteady eye to the true character of that 
f{pecies of movement. In the third Sonata, 
which is in B flat major, and opens incom- 
mon time, allegro, we find much fpirit and 
warmth of ftyle ; the modulation is fim- 
ple, but the paffages are brilliant, and of 
matterly effect. The fecond movement 
is in F, fat major, 2 andantino, and forms 
an elegant morceay, by which we are led 
toa Rendo in 2 allegretto,- the theme of 
which is pleafing in itfelf and ably diver- 
fified. ‘The Accompaniment, which is 
feparately printed, exhibits much know- 
ledge of effect, and greatly adds to the 
value of the compefition.

is particularly judicious and mafterly. 
The fecond movement in A major (a key 
certainly fomewhat too diftantand eftrang- 
ed from the. original key) is elegant, 
and fucceeded by a prefto movement, 
which clofes the Sonata happily. The 
fecond piece commences witha movement 
in. which we find much ufeful execution. 
The fecond rhovement opens with o€taves 
in the bafs, and proceeds with great va- 
riety and elegance of imagination to the 
Finale, which is a beautiful movement 
in %. The third piece is in E flat major, 
and is compoefed in a ftyle truly elaborate 
thrcughout, and the figures 1, 2, 3, 4; 
5, in the Finale, alluding to the time, 
are ufeful. This laft movement is pro- 
feffedly written in the German ftyle, and 
is ftrongly charaéteriftic of the modern - 
productions of that country, tinged with 
the particular tafte, genius, and origi= 
nality of the admirable author.

difplayed much judgment in the arrange- 
ment he has given “it, and has furnithed
