A second Grand Bugle-horn Piece, or Sixth 
Troop. Composed and Inscribed to Fobn 
Smith, Esq. by George Guest, of Wisbech. 3s 
This troop is published for clarinets, 
flutes, horns, trumpet, bugle-horn, bas- 
soons, serpent, side drum, and_ bass 
drum, with an adaptation for the piano- 
forte. The passages are spirited and 
connected; and the score is so arranged 
as to evince an intimate knowledge of 
the characters and powers of the various 
instruments it includes, and of their 
combined effects, while the adaptation 
for the piavo-forte mach increases the 
value of the publication. 
Three Sonatas for the Piano-forte, with an Ace 
companiment (ad libitum) for a Flute or Violin. 
Composed and Inscribed to the Right Hon. Vis- 
count Hampden, by Wm. Slapp. 75. 6d. 
In these sonatas, which are enriched 
by the introduction of several excellent 
and genuine Scotch airs, we find many 
agreeable and well-constructed passages. 
The prevailing features of the original 
matter are those of familiarity and sim- 
plicity: nevertheless, science and exe- 
cution are occasionally displayed, and 
the general effect is both forcible and 
florid. 
Sixe Sonatas for the Piano-forte, selected from the 
Works of Giordani, Gluck, Vento, Rauzzint, 
Ge. Arranged and Dedicated to Miss Eyre, 
by H.C. Corfe. 535. 
This selection of sonatinas is highly 
creditable to Mr. Corfe’s judgment, and 
will prove a useful acquisition to young 
practitioners on the instrument for which 
itis intended. Some of the pieces are 
uncommonly attractive ; and all, will be 
acceptabie to those who possess real 
taste, or are anxious to improve their 
finger. 
The Rose; a Ballad, for tevo Voiccs, with an 
Accompaniment for the Piano-forte and Harp- 
Lute. Written, Composed, and Inscribed, to, 
Miss Gossling, by Fokn Parry. 15. 
Mr. Parry (the editor of the Welsh 
Melodies,) has displayed in this ballad 
some taste for vocal composition. It is 
_ evidently intended as a trifle; and we are 
justified in pronouncing it a pleasing 
one. 
Ai Grand March, for the Pians-forte. Dedicated 
to Lord Cathcart and Admiral Gambier, by 
Goulding, Phipps, D’ Almaine, and Go, Qs. 
This march; which has the recommen- 
dations of a violin accompaniment, and 
the introduction of * Rule Britannia,” is 
bold and energetic in its style, and is not

uncharacterised by novelty. — tj The alle- 
gretto movement, by which it 1s succeed- 
ed, is conceived with vivacity; and so_ 
well did it merit to be announced in the 
title-page, that we think its omission 
there impolitic. 
Lord Cathcart; a favorite Dance, arranged as @ 
Rondo for the Piano-forte, by M. Holst. 
1s. 64, 
This is a pleasant little exercise; and 
calculated to improve the finger, as_ well 
as please the ear, of the piano-forte stu- 
dent. For any striking novelty or speci- 
mens of science we can never reasonably 
look for in productions of this nature; but, 
as far as their general merit extends, the 
present rondo may fairly put in its 
claims. 
The Warrior 5 sung hy Mr. Bellamy. Composed 
with an Accompaniment for the Piano-forte. 
Iuscribed to Mrs. Wildman, by Foseph Major. 
1s. 6d. 
The melody of this song is easy, natus 
ral, and pleasing ; but the compass of 
voice necessary to its performance will, 
we should fear, by no means tend to prce 
mote its general circulation. We must, 
however, in candor, observe, that the 
unusual range of the passages does not 
detract from their intrinsic merit. 
Rondo, ‘No more Love's arts bewailing.”” Com 
posed by Ff. Clarke, Mus. Doc. Cambridge. 
1s. 64. 
The subject of this rondo is interest- 
ing, and the digressive matter is well 
conceived, Many of the passages are 
at once ingenious and tasteful; while they 
rise out of each other with an ease that 
bespeaks a free and natural flow of ideas, 
and set in a highly-favourable point of 
view the well-known talents of the coms 
poser. 
**Mr. P. 0.” a New Song, sung by Mrs. Bland, 
atthe Lyceum Theatre. Composed by Mr. Parry. 
1s, 
“Mr, P.O.” is a humourous little 
effort, in which Mr. Parry has done 
what his subject required. “The melody 
is light, free, obvious, and easy of ate 
tainment. The pause, introduced for the 
accommodation’ of the words that are 
spoken, is well managed, and the effect 
of the whole is good,

Piang-forte. Composed by M. P. King. 2s. 
Bir, King has exhibited much taste in 
this iittle production. It consists of two 
movements; the first of which is in the 
compound common time of six quavers,
