REVIEW OF NEW MUSICAL PUBLICATIONS. 
—a e 
Number One, of Le Delizie delle Dame Filar- 
moniche, a Periodical Publication of Vocal, 
- Piano-forte, and Harp Music, by the most 
eminent Composers. Each Number 8s. 
ESSRS. Cianchettini and Sperati, 
the projectors and publishers of 
this publication, acquaint us in their title 
page, that they are in possession of many 
new compositions, and several MSS. pur- 
chased by Madame Cianchettini during 
her late tour on the Continent, which 
chiefly are to form the contents of the 
present work ; one number of which is to 
appear monthly. Each number is to be di- 
vided into three parts (vocal, piano-forte, 
and bass); and each partis to fill from fif- 
teen to twenty pages, and to be printed on 
the finest thick-wove paper. The Italian 
and Freach airs will be accompanied with 
an Englith translation; and any part of 
each uumber may be had separately at 
three shillings. The present number 
consists of an air by Meyer, a duett by 
Haydn, the Consolation, a new audante, 
by Dussek, a divertimento. for two per- 
formances on one piano-forte, by Wine- 
bergu, of Hamburgh, and three airs, with 
variations for the harp, by Naderman of 
Paris. Of the respective merits of these 
pieces, we are enabled to speak in terms 
of distinguished praise; and have only to 
wish in favour of the editors that the suc- 
ceeding numbers of their publication may 
be equally attractive and valuable as the 
present. 
Two Gleesmm** The Sun had brightened Gheviot 
grey,” and “ Sweet Tewiot ! on thy Silver 
fide,” for two Trebles and a Bass. Com- 
posed and dedicated to Viscount Cliwe, by Doce 
tor Fobn Clarke, of Cambridge. 5s. 
In these glees, the words of which are 
selected from the ‘* Lay of the last Min- 
strel,” we find much to admire, both in 
the melodies and combinations. The 
parts every where le commodiously for 
the voices, and the genera! effect 1s such 
as only a real master could produce. 
pleased, indeed, are we with the compo- 
sition, that we think we ventuie little in 
predicting their favourable reception and 
rapid sale. 
Numbers One and Two, of a'grandSclection of Sa- 
cred Music, from the Anthems, Gc. of G. F. 
Handel, Esq. as performed at the Chapel 
Royal, Windsor, and at his Majesty’s Con- 
certs. Dedicated to the Princess of Wales. 
Each Number, 3s. 
This work, which is to be comprized in 
tavelve numbers, is arranged for voices, 
, Monxiuzy Mas., No, 167. 
So. 
the organ and piano-forte, by Mr. 
William Sexton, and Mr. John Page, the 
publisher; at whose house, in Warwick- 
square, subscribers names are received. 
The selection, as far as we can judge by 
the present numbers, is made with judg» 
ment, and the arrangements are ably ma= 
naged. The engraving is elegant and 
correct, the paper excellent; and the 
whole promises to form a very handsome 
folio volume of useful and valuable Suns 
day music. | : 
A New Sonata for Two Ferformers on One Pi- 
ano-forte. Composed in Berlin expressly for 
Pio Cianchettini, of London, by bis Uncle 
I. L. Dussek, Esq. 4s. 
Tn the first movement of this sonata 
we find much clearness and brilliancy of 
cofiception, while the second is remarka- 
bly tender and expressive, and the con- 
cluding rondo lively and animating. The. 
piece, taken in the aggregate, represents 
Mr. Dussek’s talents with as much eclaé 
as any composition of that master that 
has come under our notice; and we. do 
not doubt its favourable reception with 
the public. : 
Ella Rosenburgh; a Grand Melo-drama, as 
performed with unbounded Applause at the 
Theatre-royel, Drury-lane. Composed and 
arranged for the Piano-forte by Mr. P. 
King. 5s. A 
We find in the music of Ella Rosen- 
burgh much taste and variety. But its 
principal merit lies where in music of this’ 
description it ought to lie—in its appre- 
priateness to the several scenes and pas-> 
sions to which it is applied. The over- 
ture 1s bold, spirited, and novel; and the 
effect of the whole highly creditable to 
Mr. King’s taste and judgment. 
La Fete Chamipétre, a Collection of Eight Dis 
wertimentos for the Piano-forte, entirely new. 
Composed by F. Hook, Esq. 4s. 
These divertimentos are written with 
all that ease and facility so conspicuous 
in the minor productions of this favoue 
rite composer, and will be found as im- 
proving as pleasing by all juvenile prac- 
titioners on the instrument for which they 
are intended. 
“© Down by a River Side,” a favourite Ballad, 
with an Accompaniment for the Piano-forte. 
Composed by Sir F. Stewenson. 1s. 6d. 
This is an elegant little ballad; and 
is distinguished by the simplicity of its 
meledy, and the truth of its expression. 
We may add, that the passages are every 
K where
