much above that of the common produc-

€¢ Conflancy,”” writica by. Peter Pindar, E/q. 
Compofed.by William Birch. - 3s. Prefion. 
The melody of this canzonet, to which 
Mr. Birch has given a piano-forte accom- 
peniment, is compofed in an expreffive 
fiyle, and perte&tly accords with the caik 
and fentiment ef the words. “Fhe meodu- 
lation, from the original key to its fitth, 
at the words ‘ When thy beauty be- 
gins to depart,”” is particularly pleafing;- 
and the clofing the air by an afcent to the 
= im the fourth fpace, has a good effect. 
“Fhe wtroduttory and intermediate fym- 
phonies we muft not omit to notice; they — 
are both tafteful and appropriate.

commendations. ‘The pafiages are, for 
the mof- part, conceived with tafte and 
fpirit, and the accompaniments are fo ad- 
julled as to evince no fight kadwledge in

ment, of cofaque, arranged as a rondo, is 
both elegant and animated in its motivo, 
and forms a moft agreeable clofe to the 
piece.

Mr. Diettenhofer has difplayed great 
depth of fcience in this publication, His 
introdufion is elaborate and mafterly, and 
evinces a familiar knowledge of the firlt 
fecrets of part compolition. We do not 
commit ourielves in faying, that Mr. Diet- 
tenhofer’s additional matter is by m0 means 
unworthy of its intermixture with that of 
the great Bird, and that, performed by 
a full and able band, it would produce a 
ftiiking and noble effect.

compojed and dedicated to the Margravine of —

Goulding Phiops, and D° Almaines 
Of this duetto we cannot fpeak in very 
high terms. - The paffages are not con- 
ceived with much fp:rit or tafte, nor are 
the parts adjufted with that fkill requifite 
to the producing the beft effects in compo 
fitions of this kind. Here and there, how- 
ever, we difcover traits of talent, and 
have no doubt but that, by the aid of ap- 
lication and experience, Mr. Jay will bee 
come a very relpectable compofer. 
Tito Trios, feleted from the Works of Mozart, 
arranged for the Harp, with Accompaniments 
for a Vislin and Violoncello, by Vifcount de 
Marin. $s. Clementi and Cos 
Tt is fufficient to fay of thefe trios, that 
they contain a proper variety of move- 
ments; that fome of the paflages are srace= 
ful, and others brilliant, and that, in a 
word, they are every. way worthy of their 
great author. Vifcount de Marin, by his 
judicious arrangement, has rendered them 
excellent exercifes for the inftrument for 
which they are here intended, and the ac- 
compariments. are calculated to” greatly. 
heighten the general effect. ;
