Harpfichord, with the Fingering accurately 
marked ; intended for Fuvenile Performers. 
Compofed and dedicated to Mifs Palk by W. 
Churchill, Organifi of Dartmouth. 8s. 
Campbell. 
Mr. Churchill, in the compofition of 
thefe progreffive Jeflons, has approved 
himfelf a good tutor on the inftrument for 
which he writes. Moft of them are con- 
ceived ina familiar and facile ftyle; and, 
excepting the variations to the air in the 
fourth leffon, we can pronounce them to- 
lerably progrefive. ‘Taken in the agere- 
gate, the work is certainly calculated to 
engage the ear of the juvenile prac- 
titioner, and to accelerate that improve- 
ment for the promotion of which it is pre- 
fented to the public.

Trifh Tune of «* Go to the Devil, and {hake your~ 
Self” arranged asa Rondo. Compofed, and 
dedicated to the Mifs Clairvilles, by W. 
Churchill, 2s. 6d. Cabufac. 
This duet exhibits Mr. Churchill’s ta- 
dents as a piano-forte compofer in a re- 
fpectable point of view. ‘The Irith tune 
is ufhered in by a movement of confider- 
able length in common time allegro, in 
which we find much fancy and contriv- 
ance; and the variations to the adapted 
air are judicioufly and attractively mo- 
delled.

Some of the pafflages, as that given to the 
words ‘¢ with choral fong in merry dance,”’ 
are pleafing, but the ideas are detached 
and incongruous; and the effect of the 
whole confequently dry and unimpreffive.
